An idea I’ve been mulling over is taking the toggle-ability of Eukrasia/6.0 SMN and have it be a fairy thing.

So, the main change I was thinking of:

1) One fairy - Lily. If no fairy is summoned, pressing Summon Eos/Selene/Seraph automatically (and instantly) summons Lily.

2) Summon will place a buff on the SCH that modifies the next fairy ability they use. Summon Seraph is a 2 min cooldown. It places a buff on the fairy that adds a shield component (Neutral Sect does this) to her Embrace (and Fey Union, noted below). Prob rename abilities.

If no fairy is summoned, the SCH will instantly summon Lily and gain the appropriate buff at the same time.

3) Fairy gauge is generated when the fairy casts a regular heal.

4) Aetherpact and Fey Union are actually two abilities now. I’ll explain Aetherpact later.

5) Embrace and Fey Union are both 3 sec ticks, have same potency, generate same gauge. One auto-targets, other is tether.

6) There are only two fairy abilities now: Fey Whisper and Fey Blessing. Effects depend on fairy toggle/buff active when pressed.

Fey Whisper (Eos) - Healing potency buff and regen.
Fey Whisper (Selene) - Healing potency buff and damage reduction.
Fey Whisper (Seraph) - Healing potency buff, stronger regen, and damage reduction. Overwrites any active Fey Whisper (Eos/Selene)

No cooldown, just fairy gauge cost.

Fey Blessing (Eos) - Heals nearby allies.
Fey Blessing (Selene) - Shields nearby allies.
Fey Blessing (Seraph) - Heals and shields nearby allies.

No cooldown, limited by fairy gauge.

Summon Seraph also gives a 2 charge buff. Reduces fairy gauge cost of your next two fairy abilities to 0. Essentially, lets you do the whole 2x Consolation.

I considered Dissipation being a fairy DPS ability. Dunno, still thinking how this could work. If anything, when Lily disappears, it doesn’t unsummon her, she just has a “15 sec long animation” of not being there and not being controllable.

7) Aetherpact - When a fairy buff is toggled, casts Fey Whisper, but costs an Aetherflow stack instead of fairy gauge. Has a 60 (or 90?) sec cooldown.

Summary:

Consolidates and updates some buttons. Before we need 8 buttons for 8 effects (Summon Eos/Selene/Seraph, Consolation, Whispering Dawn, Fey Illumination, and Fey Blessing, Dissipation). Now we have 6 buttons for 12 effects. If Dissipation is removed, we’d have 7 buttons for 7 effects in the old and 5 buttons for 9 effects in the new.

This allows the ability for control over the fairy (if needed).

Don’t know if these would be good changes, but I like the idea of consolidating fairy buttons down to make room for new abilities. I wouldn’t mind if they divorced the Aetherflow/fairy gauge from one another.

It sounds good to me, but that’s just me. Hence opening it up to the forum to pick at.
