What if radiant aura was changed...

... to do something very similar to repentance (heal health + stam for group) but have a cast time and cost a huge amout of magicka (instead of consume corpse like repentance).
In PvP, it would be a very high risk / high reward skill to use. In PvE it could sooth tank perma-block issues post 1.7.

The current morph is close to useless, given everyone pops pots on cooldown for any challenging encounter.
With a change like this, I'd say both morphs are absolutely viable pick depending on the situation.

Is there anything I'm missing why this shouldn't be done?

    My two cents:

    1) Restoring Aura, Radiant Aura, and Repentance passive abilities should work in a radius around the character, regardless of skill activation. These are minor buffs, and most players are already likely to have them anyways, but this would give a boost to the team if they didn't have them.

    2) Restoring Aura and Radiant Aura active use should both give an actual HoT, Magika over Time, and Stamina over Time, but lose the increased regen buff abilities.

    3) Radiant Aura should also give all allies in the radius a buff that gives each basic weapon attack (light and heavy attacks) a 20% chance (adjust for balance) to do X magic or fire damage.


    This would give the ability an offensive team ability and more of a burst heal/stamina burst defensive choice.

    I agree with @Aett_Thorn 's number two suggestion.
    Making the HoT, MoT and SoT be based on the caster's own regen rates would be a funny trick.

    Caster has 600 Magicka regen, 800 Health regen and 1.2K Stamina regen then Restoring aura should give 600 magicka, 800 health and 1.2K stamina to nearby allies every 2 seconds.
    Of course, if this were to happen then Repentance should get a boost, which wouldn't hurt to much as it's only a situational skill.

    I also made a suggestion for this skill, which was mostly focused on the Radiant Aura morph.
    Basically asking to return the pre 1.6.5 buff, but making it a self buff rather than a group buff.
