Re: the rez tax issue, I'd love for it to be as easy as putting Verraise on a similar CD length as Benediction, and for damage potencies to increase accordingly given not being able to chain raises.

Other adjustments? I think direct upgrades are a given (I hope), but not just for spells. Direct upgrades to the melee combo chain would be cool. I wish the AoEs were ice and water spells instead. Would love an AoE combo finisher (Chant du Cygne? Just a rad kaboom of aetherial swan feathers? Or stay melee and have it be a multi-hit like Dream Within A Dream?)
