Spell LOGOS

YES!
It's me again. I am back from the grave to fight a fight no one else wants to fight!! Or even really cares about!

I wish the spell logos made more sense and were proper!

I also haven't even looked to see if they were fixed, but I somehow doubt they were. (I would love to be proven wrong!)

Instead of rehashing: here is my original post. This is what I WISH:

I have been doing a 'deep dive' into the logos and found a few interesting things.

The large list posted on the wiki is incorrect. If we go off the logos that are being used in the game (and why not, they are the primary source) then Sanct (Protection) should be replaced with Solis (Sun, light) and Vertu should be replaced with Vatu (water).

The spells Earth's Embrace and Torpor do not have logos.

These are the biggest inconsistencies. Personally, if the above were fixed, I would be content.

But I didn't stop there.
I went further.

I got a list of all the logos for all the spells (except Chaotic Shield, none of my friends, nor myself, have that spell). Then I referenced them, tallying each time a logos was used and hoped to optimize the usage of them.
Sort of what Browncoat Jayson did two years ago, but on a larger scale.

For example, Bet is only used in two spells. Instead of increasing the amount of usages, I removed it, replacing the two occurrences with other logos.

I also replaced the only occurrence of lumen (in Fireflies) with Luna (now it is luna hex - moon curse).

I also balanced out the usages of opposing logos (asen/desen, etc at 9 each), and made similar spells have similar logos (earth/fire/ice/chaos arrow are all terra/ignis/frigo/kaus motus); drain life is corp like all other 1st tier spells, etc) and cleaned up some of the other logos that made little sense.

Added an additional logos to Summon Air Elemental, Healing Burst, Lightning, and Summon Ice Elemental to align them to their 'tier' of magic per the skill chart. (Thanks Ashyeena Marsh)

All my work can be seen on this Google Sheet.

It would be great if someone took the spreadsheet I made and plugged it into the game, or better yet, gave me a form to fill out so it reduces the time needed on their end. Really, this is just a simple fix and I know myself and others would be very happy to assist by either making it easier for the developers to put it into the game or make the logos better than they are now.
