The arrival of Neal Adams amping up her power visuals... (even with the fainting female character paradigm of that era)
The aforementioned Magento Savage Land takedown...
And while Jean was not in her miniskirt at the time, Sentinel Switcheroo with the Brotherhood near the end of the O5's run, having Jean's telekinesis masquerade as Wanda's hex bolts was kind of meta commentary of the similarity of the women's empowerment (though not as similar as Jean/Sue Storm) that echos to modern portrayals (see MCU's Wanda via Joss Whedon)....
Jean died and came back to life with the help of Xavier. Sentinels killed her and she transferred her mind into Emma Frost. Jean was clinically dead.
In Endsong, Jean was frozen underground while the Phoenix possessed Emma Frost. She resurrected herself and ripped the Phoenix out of Emma.
Jeen was consumed by the poisons. Yet she absorbed their psychic energy and rebuilt her body.
Her most recent resurrection was due to the Krakoan process. She has had 4 resurrections that she did herself or otherwise without the Phoenix.
Still my contention that giving Jean the Moira X storyline revealing a heretofore unknown resurrection/multiple lifetime aspect of her mutation would have been a superior evolution of her "Phoenix" concept than what we were given by PHOENIX:RESURRECTION, and without having to remove one of the staunch Ally characters in the X-Lore.

She got creative and made use of other weapons at her disposal...
Jean was on fire this issue though (UXM #63) partially to play off the cover fakeout that made it look like she might be turning against the team. They made her behave in a vocally "feminist" way more than usual.
It seemed like they wanted Jean to be powerful and do things, but then held back once they realized what she could really do. At least we got what we did.
I have always liked the panel were Jean is angry and points her finger at Mags.
"Fans" always want to say Jean has a fiery temper, but this was really the first time we saw it---and with good reason. Hard pressed to think of another time that Jean was shown as passionately angry, except upon her return when she learns Mags is leading the X-Men.
