Make rain spells work properly.
This was my first thought. I feel the druation stuns should last longer too.

Related to stuns, apparently bash/slam (melee stuns) were meant to generate similar aggro to their spell counterparts, but the coding was broke and the devs didnt realise until circa Dragons of Norrath (so it never got fixed).

If melee stun worked as intended warriors/sk/paladin could sword and board much more convincingly as they'd have both a 'take aggro' (taunt) button and a 'boost aggro' (bash) button that didn't rely on spell effect aggro. Having the tanks be so much more effective aggro makers would open up the game more for classes with very frontloaded aggro, like wizards (and those poor, downtrodden shamans/encs :P).
