6.08 buffs, what´s the point?!

Reaper doesn't have more utility than Monk.

Arcane Crest heals the party on its own compared to Mantra that makes healers heal harder. (Also every healer I've done savage raiding with says it's a worthless skill since it's never saved them a heal cast, which arguably could be said of Arcane Crest too, which would make it utility in a similar manner to Everlasting Flight, except it puts out a regen when the party actually has damage on them)

Arcane Circle buffs the party for longer than does Brotherhood.

That was the first question that popped in my head. "Should we still do double solar or is it better to get in Phantom Rush as soon as possible now?"

Double solar opener is even more solidly the case now than before. Phantom Rush getting a buff means you want it to line up with party buffs even more so than before. If you used it as soon as possible, the only possible buffs the skill could have would be riddle of fire and trick attack, compared to holding it till 120 seconds where more buffs will be out.
