With a sudden renaissance in melee abilities, I imagine spellcasters in general will write their spells as faster than previously characterized even at the risk of inconsistency. I suppose a new method will be necessary.
Until we know what the lore for the class is, I'm holding off on assuming people will just crank their power knobs to 11. I'm just really certain there's about to be a ton of red mages turning up, discovering their power, finding soul crystals or whatever other "I've been here all along" kind of justifications sprout up. Sekrit Au Ra and all, you know?
