Just for a last minute band aid fix, a part from the required qol adjustment, to me would be enough if they add an alternative combo path with a higher potency but which costs mana to the single target and aoe rotation.

Something like:
- Power slash: combo from siphon strikes, cost X mp, Y potency, grants 20 blood
- Abyssal drain: combo from unleash, cost X mp, Y potency, grants 20 blood

Therfore forcing you to think how to spend mana:
- do i need mitigation - > tbn
- do i need darkside - > edge/flood
- I am fine - > use the mana for the higher potency combo
