    Definitely agree with Red Mage being a focused blaster, and Pyromancer being the gold standard for that class.

    I would give it an at-will scaling SLA (fire, electricity, force or sonic) it can use as a ranged or melee touch attack. Fire might have an AoE component and/or recurring damage, force would ignore incorporeality, hardness and damage reduction, sonic would potentially deafen and do additional damage to objects, lightning would rebound.

    All mages and in particular the Red and Blue mages and their archetypes should have some way to negate relatively common resistances and immunities on a limited but recurring basis (per encounter preferably) that would otherwise cripple their specializations and core schticks.

    Feats that improve archetypes or the basic chassis of each class are certainly a thought.
