Currently, with the secondary magic system as it is we have to do the following (or it was like this the last time I did it. If this has changed then feel free to lock or delete this):
Create all five spells and the signature spell all at once.
This is so that the app doesn't have to be unlocked each time a person rank's up, but by this logic we should also do the same for primary magic and we don't.
This also prevents people doing things like 'Ok I really like this spell and i'm C rank so i'll have it at C rank then when I rank up i'll rank this up and replace it'
As when rethinking my secondary this is my issue. I really like my B rank spell and I know i'm going to want to take it up when I rank up (also thinking same for my new C rank idea), but I can't because I have to decide on all five spells and a signature all at once.
IF I can't use the spells yet I dont' see why I should be registering them as by the time I rank up I might decide on something completely different that I want to do with that spell slot.
--------------------------
That's the main tweak i'd suggest, but there is one other. Allow the signature spell of the secondary to be used a little bit earlier. We get signature spell for primary at C rank (if I recall the rules correctly) so one level above starting. We get secondary magic at C rank as well(with 100 posts) so I'd say maybe we can get the signature at B rank(one level above starting), but only if we have enough posts (say 200?).
That way we have a chance to use this spell and make it a 'signature move' that we've mastered before we hit S rank which is essentially the highest rank most people are ever going to hit.
