And that was the end of that conversation.
Seeing you mentioned conversion made me have an idea. What if they returned Eos and Selene as separate fairies with a twist?

When Eos is out, you're granted the buff "Offensive Tactics", all your Aetherflow actions will be offensive while all of Eos' fairy gauge skills are healing/defensive.
When Selene is out, you're granted the buff "Preservation Tactics", all your Aetherflow actions will be the healing and defensive stuff we have now while all of Selene's fairy gauge skills will be offensive.
They can add an OGCD action called "Aspect Shift" or something which swaps between fairies.

This preserves the tactical aspect of SCH by making both gauges multipurpose while also making both fairies have a use as you'd want to swap between them as their abilities come up for maximum effect.
