It just has me thinking WHMs will now get a Pianissimo-like JA that'll turn their AoE buffs into single-targets. That feels more like SE logic there since the AoE issue isn't unlike those BRDs have faced in getting varying buffs on party members.

I still hold out hope for a greater synergy between the abilities we have now to collectively create a better job than individually focusing on WHM, BLM, or WAR tactics to the -X degree for a given encounter, but that would also require greater effort than tweaking a recast timer or even some resist rates.
