Add the spell Silence (for mobs too, long duration). Add Silent Spell Feat (either as in the rulebook; occupying a spellslot of higher level or at say +35 sp cost). Remove echoes of power. Remove spell level cap for most elemental based spells. Unnerf acid spells. Presto: balance!

I think a silence spell would be awesome. It would also stop mobs from warning there buddies.
