Activating Elemental Avatar drops IE. As a melee this is /incredibly/ annoying while doing PVE content as you are constantly toggling on and off to sustain piety. During PVP it gets left on so a change to this mechanic wouldn't be a buff in PVP. This is an epic spell and after having a PC with it for a while it feels overall slightly underpowered outside of the shield AC bonus while two handing which feels just right so a small buff I feel wouldn't tip this into overpowered.
TLDR EA dropping IE for a Epic Spell stance feels clunky and annoying and changing it so it doesn't drop IE would be a good PVE quality of life buff that wouldn't effect PVP.
