As far as utility, I think someone mentioned an interesting aura kind of effect that could be attached to egis, e.g. Garuda give a skill/spell speed buff, Ifrit give a damage boost of some sort, DHit or Crit I suppose. I realize those are damage "utility" but I'm not particularly imaginative in that area, perhaps for BLM make Manawall usable on a target or something. Maybe give SMN Sustain back and have it usable oGCD on a low health target (including party members) with a moderate recast.
