Seriouosly SE....

Can you add a noncombat method to AOE stoneskin the party already :S

You don't need to stoneskin the entire party most of the time.

It's called Succor :p

That's more of a buff for tanks isn't it?

Stoneskin on entire pt = Less mp healers have to waste curing other people besides tank if they get hit by something.

Sadly, people complained about it in 1.0 - You could toggle AoE on and off for spells.

Though some things should be avoided anyway I agree with this statement. For people who have trouble avoiding various attacks due to connection issues ,or are just not as skilled as some, this could help a group considerably as a whole.

Even after SE removed the AoE toggle that switched between single target and AoE for every spell, they gave at least the BLM (or was it WHM?) a cross-class skill that gave the next buff spell an AoE effect. Sadly they decided to bring the skill not to ARR.

Well they did bring the skill into ARR (Sacred Prism) but SE decided to make it a pvp only skill with a completely different effect...:

Thing is most people don't even realise but unless you are a casting stoneskin as a WHM it's almost worthless.
