These are some good points, probably should be more explicit about what happens if you don't pay the cost. Would it be better if it was just a new subtype rather than a mechanic as it is now?
Augments only attach to creatures you control as of now, so they already get around hexproof in the way you'd want them to. However it's probably better for them to target in the long run I think.
And to clarify, yes Augments function like auras except if the creature they're attached to leaves the battlefield you can basically recast the card on another creature you control.
Looks like it hangs around as an unattached (and therefore fairly pointless) artifact.
I guess other augments might have a global effect as well as an attachment effect; or have ways to re-attach.

That does seem more like an appropriate power level.
Still might need some restricting but I figured since it doesn't trigger from ETBs, costs more and has less power it should be fine.

Removed for changed version.
See Card75656. New version of a the previous card. I think it's better this way.

They also don't target, so they get around shroud and hexproof.
They're essentially auras with upside. Gotta think of (and cost) them like that, rather than bad equipment.

What happens to an augment if you don't pay the cost?
