Please don't get rid of the flavor of mantras. The animations, the voiced lines that are unique to each one, the theme of the firebrand ones being casted upon settling on the spinning symbol that holds all of the words. Taking all of that away and then giving us a bland, simplified instant cast cone skill is super lame. While yes, it does get rid of the PvE problem that makes using the final charge feel like a mistake, at what cost? Why do you do this, ArenaNet? You put work into animations and voiced lines and then trash them? Look, instead of turning mantras into soulless ammo skills, why don't you actually work on improving the final charges so that they're worth using? Or adding traits that actually reward using the final charge? Or even affecting other skills (cooldown reductions, damage increases, bigger heals, etc) upon using the final charge? Please, don't throw away what makes mantras cool.
