Ewer is made entirely redundant by the fact every job has instant healing so it’s extremely rare for anyone to require HP regen (it just becomes overheal lol). I’d rather just use Celestial Opposition or flash Collective Unconscious if I was that desperate for regen lol, at least those are AoE

Arrow is just lol . Single target mantra is probably the most useless effect I could ever think of, and serves essentially no purpose at all except creating the illusion you have more cards than you actually do.

Lastly the shield on spire is so weak a gust of wind breaks it lol. I’ve yet to find any actual way to turn it into a benefit and not just something completely unnecessary lol; Celestial Intersection already exists.

Did they make the card system for like min Ilvl ultimates or something lol? Literally 8/10 of all cards have effects that are completely out of place in ffxiv’s encounter design
Arrow is ironically the best of those 4 cards because it can buff spreadlo and it’s not like the power couple of AST+SCH needs more buffs
