Now WHM is full on holy and BLM is kind of an offensive arcane master similar to the last few FF games.
I would certainly be alright with that, as long as the actual damage output doesn't really change and it isn't limited to only being effective on undead.

In XI, there were very few instances in which Banish/II/III/-ga/II were ever worth casting. If they were to be given to WHM at the expense of Aero Stone and Water, I'd like them to be at least on par with those spells that it has lost. Obviously elemental properties wouldn't be applicable, but if you take away Aero and give Banish, then make it so that an unresisted Banish is equal in damage to an unresisted Aero.

Your trade is that Holy spells will do consistent damage across all elements with no elemental resistances or boosts being applicable. Elemental spells will still do decent damage, but shine even more when used against the appropriate element.
