I honestly don't agree to this :xAnyway... I don't think the luopan should be made mobile, however an ability to relocate it, with maybe a 1m recast or a small cost to the luopan's HP or something would be reaosnable given SE balancing practice.
First off, what mechanic would even allow you to reposition the Luopan to the spell's target? By targeting them again? The fact that it would take a minute to reposition them doesn't really help anything but only just puts a bandage on a fundamental job issue. A 15-second recast like Pianissimo would be better, but I don't think it should consume Luopan HP to do it. Thematically, it would be more like surfing the life stream.
I have a feeling this might come with AFGear or some other item, much like Luzaf's Ring. I'm not too worried about that as much as I am worried about how SE is going to manage merits, especially merited job abilities. Job Abilities have been game changers for a while (Last Resort), and I would hate to have job abilities for GEO that don't take the job in the direction that makes them versatile for alliance or 6-man groups.I would like to see the range of the auras increased to 10', however.
The Luopan will still be up depending on how much HP it has remaining.
