Even at half strength, the Burning Heart would be even more powerful than it is now, since you would be able to get it to full power twice as fast as before (30 hits to max out against a L10 monster now; 15 hits at half power, but you're hitting twice as often so you do the same amount of damage in the end). Making it non-stacking would be pointless, since we already have the Battlemage Ring. Wizards would be completely broken with cheap BURNDAYRAZ. Paladins, in the meantime, would suffer unnecessarily from the nerf to HALPMEH.
If the goal is to encourage Wizards to use fireballs more often, how about this: Wizards start with BURNDAYRAZ in their inventory, as a small item, but lose their glyph sense and other glyphs remain large items (they'll still get the usual 5 glyphs on the map, randomly selected but without an extra BURNDAYRAZ).
