I would like to suggest that some repus be finetuned. They seem to push people
to a playstyle that doesn't feel too productive gamewise, in my opinion.
Mainly I'm talking about any repu which pushes people to grind beastlands day
after day after day. Also, bardic might is something that is too grindable and
too little gained by partying. I'm not suggesting retroactive changes so that
the heavy grinders be punished for adapting to the game, but mainly change
things from now on.

Bardic might: imo better if amount of targets hit counted as casts: if healing
1 guy with campfire tune gets you one cast worh, then healing 9 guys with
campfire tune should get you 9 casts worth. This way partying would be the
best way to gain repu instead of sitting in your castleroom singing the same
song over and over and over again. If the repu gained this way proved too fast
( i doubt) i'm sure some tweaks can be made. For instance to boost partying
slightly, sqrt(amount of targets) would make healing a 9man party only 3 times
better gains than solohealing.

aelena familiar: Seems to be sheer corpsecount, which leads to beastlands.
Something else could be preferable, Maybe the familiar could be changed to
work in a similar manner to the animist souls, ie, you can gather exp and just
choose to spend it on your self or your soul, or in this case familiar. If
there are balance issues, I'm sure they can be finetuned. ( also, give
familiar reincs please! )

Aelena insight: Skill goes from 0 to 100% and i doubt anyone has ever had it
past 15%. Since it's cast amount based, could easily just look at the mage
essences and divide by some factor. Then just tweak the current effects to
what feels appropriate. ie, current 10% gives same effect as new 30%, or 50%,
or 70%, who knows!

These are the ones that spring to mind to me now. If there is willingness, but
no idea how to finetune or change, I can help with the maths if thats the only
thing blocking.
