Ahaha yeah, your right, maybe it might be an overkill, perhaps reducing it to a 10s buff duration. It was just a thought =D

At any rate, and a point I'm sure you can get behind: I'd rather not have RDM's OSB be yet another rehash of Manaward, when it has so many unique opportunities of its own from its cross with WHM.
Sort of spitting stuff out at this moment, if we want something unique, how about something like:

[If Black Mana Meter is higher] If 30+ Black Mana accumulation required - Ice Spikes becomes available

Ice Spikes: Creates a barrier that nullifies damage totaling up to 30% of maximum HP.
  • Duration: 20s
  • Additional Effect: Ice Form
  • 15% Of damage dealt converted to MP
  • Duration: 20s

[If White Mana Meter is higher] 30+ White Mana accumulated required - Stoneskin

Stoneskin: Creates a barrier that nullifies damage totaling up to 30% of maximum HP.
  • Duration: 20s
  • Additional Effect: Grants healing over time effect
  • Cure Potency: 100
  • Duration: 20s

I know you mentioned something like this in a post before, but can't recall what you described. How would you craft something along the lines of Manaward / Earthen Barrier with a unique RDM twist?
