observation of Phoenix from the job preview trailer for 5.0 smn

[dinnertime]

I think Everlasting Flight is something that applies automatically when you summon Phoenix. Maybe...
The Burgeoning Flame effect is probably just flavor text. It's like the "Ver[something] Ready" effect from RDM for example, only meaning that you can use that particular Ver[something] attack. Everything will make more sense when we see the traits.

That's the only way that having an ability like that would make sense. We have 20 seconds of Phoenix, nobody's going to spend a cast on a lousy heal when you could be dealing damage. I still want to know why they even included Everlasting Flight. Who's going to care about the minimal healing it will provide, should you happen to time Phoenix's summon when the party has taken damage?

...Instead of a lousy heal, can you imagine if the entire party got a buff every time we summoned Phoenix instead? Now that would be spicy.
