None of those are imperative purchases, to my view. You have two lenses that give you a lot of shooting options. I'd probably use them for a few more months then decide afterward. With a 1.8 stabilized lens, there are few situations where you wish you have a 1.4 and using a flash may not be the solution.

Have you tried using the 1.6 shooting mode of your RP? That kind of stretches your 240mm to 384mm. Gives you an idea if 400mm will be enough.

If you're already sure you're hooked to wildlife and landscape, make a list of lenses again some time later.

Btw I have four external flashes. The one that's always in my camera bag is the EL-100. My former favorite 470EX-AI I often just use for product photography or studio portrait photography.
