Rise of the Phoenix suggestion
Also are there any min/maxers out there who can find a reason to take FA ? Or is it just considered underpowered and not worth the trouble.

That sweet, sweet Divine Avalanch, I always forget about you. That'd be some pretty crazy burst damage as well on the FE+BU sword t9's.

I took FA for my Katana scrapper, but to be honest if ELA was available at the time I wouldn't have. While Healing Flames is clearly superior, I don't like relying on fast recharging heals for mitigation with a sword set, and I'd rather have the slower (but slightly stronger) heal in ELA coupled with the slighty higher resistances. I found Burn didn't work for me and Fiery Embrace isn't enough by itself to make up for the superior end capabilities, passive recharge, psi and debuff resistances ELA gets to enjoy.
That said, I'm fine with the performance of my Kat/FA.
As for the rez, your first suggestion appeals to me the most. In this world of Shield Charge and Lightning Rod, a tier9 that requires you to be dead to use should do blaster nuke damage... and by that I mean the damage should not only be upfront, but higher as well, because when you use something while dead you can't use damage buffs such as build up and fiery embrace with it.
The power doesn't work right, I would be fine if this was a hugely damaging power like it should be (to be worth death and at cost of something like shield charge or a t9) (fire is supposed to be 'the' damage set).
So why not
1.)Make the damage up front
2.)Make the DoT Stick to the enemy as if they were on fire
3.)Get rid of the massive friggen crazy KB That makes teams hate you and makes it incredibly rare to get more than 1/3 damage that also spreads out enemies so you cant take advantage of the invincible 10 seconds thats unique to the power to take revenge.
Of course I like KB for visual appearance, so top 2 choices would be preferable. So what's the deal yo, there's only a brief stun associated with the power as far as debuffs go, Fallout is still top dog of the corpsesplosion business like it should be.
How does anyone else feel?
