Adding a high damage ice spell has a lot of merit and would have been more of a change up than Flare Star. Such a spell could have also been the focus of the MP change, allow it to be an instant MP restore if SE felt like we really needed one while also keeping MP regen to allow for more dynamic play. I'd support this over what we have now.
