Going to be honest, I haven't totally thought this through.
But what if the Revenant's Summon Bat Swarm became a child skill to Shadow of the Bat, and gained the following adjustments:
-While the Revenant is in Bat form, the Bat Swarm will immediately attempt an attack on any enemy character hit by the Revenant.
-While Revenant is in Bat form, it gains +2% Defense while a Bat Swarm is summoned.
Those numbers/features may not be feasible, but my thought is that while Bat Animus and Bat Swarm are both underwhelming on their own, maybe giving them some synergies would make both more attractive.

Bat Swarm as a child of Shadow of the Bat is planned in B5, though it'll remain 30 CP and be an exception to the rule that child skills are generally more expensive than their parent skills.
Bat swarms following your lead exactly doesn't fit the lore of Revenant pets; they follow you with less loyalty and more instinct than most petmaster pets. This'll be more apparent with another, much bigger, Revenant pet change in the future.
More defense if you're in bat form and have a bat swarm out (since it's hard for attackers to tell which bat is you) is super doable and super flavorful. It'll be in the next round of B4 game updates.
