This is how I feel. Yes, A/Ms and Bishops are different. But should A/Ms be stronger than Bishops? Yes, but only slightly.
What do Bishops have? HS, invincible, elemental resistance, and holy attacks (granted, there's much more than that but in terms of leveling, this is all that's important).
What do A/Ms have? meditation, ele amp, partial resistance, spell booster, and elemental decrease.
Already you can see A/Ms are set for stronger attacks, but is 2x~3x dmg really a "fair" exchange for the ever-wanted Holy Symbol? I think not. Mainly seeing as HS mules are so easy to make but there's never a damage mule. Because no matter what a Bishop does, whoever they party would/can classify the Bishop as a HS mule. I may be going on another topic here, so I'll just leave it at this.
All-in-all. Yes, I am happy a lot for this change. However, if (and ONLY IF) compensation needs to be done, then just make it a 5% dmg increase on the weapons and no dmg increase for the secondary element. Something small.
