Vitality -> Spirit Changes

I feel like Spirit is just another magic reskin with extra lore and more restrained since skills aren't that customizeable. But I wonder what your guys' thoughts on it? Do you like it, do you hate it, or do you think that it's heading in the right direction/ fo you feel like Spirit should be more than a build with weapons that come with magic synergies?

For me, personally, I feel like Spirit users should be able to alter the skills/rites of their weapon, and have increased regen as their awakening passive, or maybe spirit should add an increase in regen.

But I wanna hear the community's thoughts on this as well.
