Some kind of Bishop revamp

Just wanted to point out that no party buffs in the game depend on the caster's stats. Rage gives the same attack boost for the same duration regardless if the caster is a lowly naked Fighter or a level 200 max-range Hero. Hyper Body gives the same percent boost to everyone, the difference in HP and MP gained depends on the affected's stats, not the caster's. Same with Dark Aura, Echo of Hero, Maple Warrior - all the buffs that are not a fixed number, are a % of the affected's stats, not the caster's.

Note also that Phantoms can steal these skills you just designed...

I know this. I just felt that Bishops as a whole don't have much incentive for improving their equipment. Other classes with party skills were at least designed with the intent of still being an attack class, while Bishops are just leveled to 130 or so and then hang on a rope for eternity in LHC/SH. Yes, a Phantom could steal the skills, but there'd still be the disparity between crit rate, mastery, and stats in general. I figured so long as one Bishop != every other Bishop, there'd be some reason for trying to improve.
