On first impressions, I already greatly prefer this Atomos summoning magic to another useless Astral Flow only ability. Even if the effect transferred is random, Atomos' effect is going to be worth using in at least some situations - most NMs have buffs worth stealing. Hopefully detrimental effects won't be included, though I wouldn't put it past SE. I'll reserve judgement until the release, but I'm preparing myself to be pleased with this!
Avatar's Favour - It almost couldn't get any worse than it is now, so this looks to be an improvement. I'm pretty sure the wording implies that perpetuation cost will increase up from base value after the change, not just remove the cost reduction we have now, but I think we can cope with that unless it's absurd. It all hinges on whether BP use resets favour potency still - if so, then it's still borderline worthless.
Apogee - Certainly can't hurt. Shame that they felt that this required a penalty in MP.
Increased accuracy - Thank goodness for that.
I was really hoping the promised update would remove the caps on our Wards and increase the potency on some of our weaker enhancing effects, but this is all still potentially nice stuff. Hopefully more waiting in the wings - and some bug fixes wouldn't go amiss either.
