in Lann
Step One: Reduce stamina consumption on his attacks, they take far too much and leave him winded pretty fast.

Step Two: Give him a passive running/charging skill akin to that of Delia's, 10-13 second cool down that can chain into Double Crescent- This will also allow him to be able to catch up to highly mobile bosses and continue the good fight.

Step Three: Some of his attacks should have a two hit/extra damage (yellow numbers) under Wind Rider buff: Double Crescent, Rising Crescent, and Fanning Slash- which would make sense since he uses both weapons to attack simultaneously.

Step Four: i-Frames/avoid collision on Lightning Fury like Spear Lann.

Step Five: Since he'll "need" to have negative drawback, just take away the pseudo "permanent" furious buff: Make it last 30 seconds again that you'll have to rebuild again through Thousand Needles once the buff wears off

With it being done this way, DevCat won't really have to tweak his damage or damage modifiers
(brain dead version/intriguing rework)

Idea two-

Bring back Revamped Lann. In my personal belief, I think Sword Lann's revamp had came too soon and no one really expected it, that with the combination of a bunch of hate from other (lazy) classes made it seem like he could do too much which lead to his nerf. Now, those classes have all gotten their revamps while the new ones can also easily out perform him since his original problems with stamina are still a thing while also falling behind damage wise in general. This would be the easiest route to take that wouldn't make him completely brain dead/broken like the others as it'd make him be able to compete with the others again~

    Yeah, all he needs is a bandana that gives say +10 crit, and pump that crit damage back to 250. Then everyone will want to play sword again ;-)

    And of course post rise, there is no way to balance anything in this game anymore so the dev. will likely say just make a +20 and you will be dps king ;-)

    first and most important should be the base damage
    then rework 1k needle into chasing skill (hold right click to charge it's distant)

    or scratch everything and give us dual gun >:)
