Still, the weave concern would be there, so there's a decent chance we would either lose something else if they did take this into consideration, or at least not gain back our Nastronds, which means we would still have problems with the job being very dull at levels before we have access to Wyrmwind. Basically, it's a generally good idea, but won't necessarily help up resolve the current main problem.
By reworking Life Surge into a weaponskill, you save the same amount of weaves as the removal of the NAS charges.

Plus, if more actions gave scales, then it'd be logical to raise the maximum amount of scales to 3 while keeping the cost of WWT at 2. In fact, WWT could consume all scales on use, dealing the damage it does now with 2 scales or 50% more potency with 3. And this kind of changes would make sure that you never use more than two WWTs per burst while also providing flexibility and management with our remaining gauge element.
