I found it funny that they are buffing F/P mages 2nd and 3rd job when that's when they shine the most. Poison Brace gets exp like hell in second job and you have a very strong single-target skill making for a strong 2nd job.
In 3rd job, poison mist is almost imbalanced in ways of training. Thus explosion is weak a mob skill.
In terms of fixing, I'd rather they made partial resistance work correctly. Some apparently fire based attacks are not reduced by it.
I was thinking something like that too...
I guess they thought of all the changes for now, but they are changing them one at a time for now. Maybe I/L is going to get an epic buff or something. Or it couldbe interesting if they changed the current skills to be more party-wise. Like, frozen mobs get increased damage from weapon attacks, making it as if half of the incremented damage went to the mage's exp part, or slowed down monsters get damaged more by rush or other monster moving skills, like dragon breath.
Would be a nice twist to partying.

Maybe a future heroic class will have that as a party skill.
