    My wishlist

    1. Swiftercast: Trait that reduces Swiftcast and Triplecast CD by 30s
    2. Speedrawing: Trait that reduces Ley Lines CD by 60s (meaning that all three are 30s buffs)
    3. Phantom Dart: A debuff that increases magic damage on the target, would be exactly the same as the PVP version except for the icon which would naturally omit the border
    4. Twilight: A 120s CD that changes Fowl into Light's Cocytus (under AI) and Darkness' Brimstone (Under AF) which has a potency increase one a 30s DoT puddle beneath the targets. Also works like Raging Strikes besides.
    5. Stardust: A two-polyglot spell that deals 1500 pot damage
    What these will mean is that BLM has a 30s Burst window with more abilities to move/weave in CDs and more Ley Lines uptime for Between the Liens and general Spell Speed buffs, as well as 1 semi-utility skill that increases all magic damage. Plus some trait upgrades and a spell that uses two polyglots

    Regarding triplecast I doubt making it available every 30sec is a good thing. Since it means you have it up at every astral fire phase... Which is already our burst phase every 30 sec. This imo would take the job too far in terms of "ahah moving fire 4 go brrr". The cd reduction on swiftcast is however an idea that I find interesting... But I would simply prefer if they reduced the cooldown of Manafont, so we could have it every 120sec instead of 180. This alone would make it a tremendous buff for our burst phase.

    Leylines cd could get reduced but not to 30sec, as you would be under leylines for roughly 75% of the time, which seems a bit much. 60sec seems to be the sweetspot to reach, since it gives an actual incentive to look for burst windows and setting up properly. 30sec seems too... Forgiving imo.

    And also I think we don't need something to expand two polyglot stacks at once. Xenoglossy is amazing, because it's instant and better than Foul for mono target. It gives us an amazing mobility option, and I doubt that giving us a strictly better potency option is the way to go.

    Polyglot management is already at... Its peak management possibilities. It gives two options which are both equally interesting for different solutions, giving us a third one which would completely overshadow both in potency as well as removing the possibility of movement (while making us wait even longer for it, rendering some ice phase hard to manage, since you don't have to refresh thunder at every ice phase) is imo not the good path to take. If anything, Ice Phase could use some love, not polyglot.

    Still not sure if Samurai's a tank who forgot that aggro was a thing or a dps that's way too much into it.
