As always, thank you for your feedback. Since I'm currently on an iPad, I can't write an extensive post since it's a bit uncomfortable for most people (forgive me). I'll give as much answers as I can.

I am definetely going to make Arcanum Deposits her core ability. Better said, her 'identity'. A mass of enemy units is 3 monsters or 5 minions (minimum), therefore most monster camps should spawn Arcanum. Giving her a small movement speed bonus towards Arcanum Deposits could fit her junkie theme as well. Overall, the changes to her passive won't include the removal of Marked.

Arcane Assault is in definite need of some changes. Your ideas sound great. I'm definetely going to retune the cooldown and range on it. As for diving with it, I thought I'd have it deal increased damage for each enemy unit hit along the path. This can punish enemy champions for hiding behind lackies (Hue hue, Sion refference).

I think that there is one major change that can make this ability cooler: Having it remove the immunity marks from targets recently affected by her passive. Or perhaps any form of ranged damage dealing % current health damage while melee damage dealing % missing health damage. If the target is below or above 50% health, the retrospective bonuses to her damage don't apply.

I'll leave E as it is for now. It seems that I need at least one 'simply simple' ability to make a kit function properly.

The ideas for Last Stand causing Arcanum to spread and make an URF mode arena for her are amazing, but my next concept is heavily built around map control and terrain manipulation. I'll definetely add a mechanic where it would list the amount of Arcanum she has sucked up and stored into her Reconditus. If she casts Last Stand on any area, rich with Arcanum or not, she will release the Arcanum onto the ground. This area could last for 6 seconds before she has to return to the epicenter of it to 'restock' from it and grant her an URF-like playground for her. (I can't make it longer since... well, we all know what happened to Ryze). More Arcanum 'stacks', the better the bonuses will be from Arcane Rush while also having a larger AoE (would get as big as Trundle's Frozen Domain).

I'll get to working on these changes within the next hour. As I said, working from an iPad is tiresome and it takes much more time.
