Considering that as a lightning mage, all you get out of Guile is the critical modifier, I think it's fine as is. The only real issue is AoE lighting criticals from elemental impact, but that would require a different fix.

Ah yes, the classic 'I support this change, except for the parts that nerf mages'. Swift autohits are sometimes doing more damage than critical hits with weapon attacks, and lightning spells crush the rest of the elements in terms of damage. Ryemei offers strong utility in terms of Interference -- as opposed to something like Libegrande, which exists exclusively to work with intensify cold -- and Overload is still notorious for killing people as badly as Isenshi and Exgalfa.

Couple all of this with the fact that lightning resist is much harder to come by than the other elements, and you have the current state of affairs.
