    SMN/Modify Deathflare

    Suggestion.

    Deathflare and Akh Morn are a bit redundant in terms of animation and theme. In order to differentiate things I suggest that Deathflare be converted into an ability with new animations that randomly summons between a set of unused primals who execute a reduced version of their 'signature attack' that is mechanically the same that deathflare is now in terms of balance but has different animations.

    So instead of 'deathflare' you would execute an ability that might summon a vision of Ramuh/Shiva/etc that would do a lightning/ice/etc effect. This would essentially mimic the FFIV/FFVI classic style of summoning and give the class a little more flavor by giving a greater variety of summons. It seems like this would just require some animation tweaks without any real mechanical overhaul and appears to be compatible with the upcoming changes.

    Well from what I understand, now it becomes Firebird Trance so Akh Morn is only Bahamut, and the Trance Finisher is Revelation.

    It's only back to Deathflare in level down synch, but then you'd need to change the whole job quest ark where Y'mithra, Dancing wolf and the WoL agree that Trance is more efficient than Egi (which have a limited use, that's why we can't have a Ramuh Egi), and so they go to Carthenaud Flats precisely to hunt for some Bahamut Aether to channel those actions.

    I think I would prefer if Bahamut's Akh Morn was changed to Gigaflare.
