Ress is arguably one of the most powerful spells in the game. You know the reasons - makes some zones doable, allows us to explore, farg up - etc.
So why in this brave new Sojourn do we have weapons with 10 line procs of glowing neon color (no dig here - those proc's are appreciated!) and ress still has that low key, boring room echo?
If both target and caster have to pay a price for its casting at least spiff up the spell of us to oOooOo and AaAHhHHh over!

The area around you slowly seems to start shimmering as a faint pain sets in and your vision blurs. The pain shifts through your body and suddenly intensifies, tearing your soul from your body! As you watch in horror, your limbs wither, crumble and turn to dust, but you are still standing! Then suddenly everything goes black and you have the sensation of racing through another plane - which abruptly ends as you howl in pain, back in your old body.
Caster's room:
As xxx starts praying to his gods, a soft glow can be seen slowly emanating from him. Strands of miasma flow from his hands, writhing their way to the corpse of yyy. As they reach the lifeless body, it glows with an intense (holy/unholy) aura for a few seconds. Suddenly the body's eyes open and yyy howls in pain, resurrected!
Or whatever...
