    I really hope they make it similar to BRs so that you can press a different key to cast it as an aoe (I vote for pressing the button mapped to the 'Open Map' key to cast as an aoe for controller users, and let keyboard/mouse users hold down 'z' while selecting the spell to choose it as an aoe). I REALLY don't want to have to set up a mountain of action bars just so I can have decent aoe functionality.

    That's almost exactly how it is right now. Controller users: Press emote button when selecting spell target. Keyboard users: Press Z when selecting spell target.

    The system is good, the main problem is that it's not explained anywhere. That's not Yoshida's fault though, that was put in by Tanaka but never explained anywhere.

    I would prefer they keep the toggle in place unless they have a better system planned. I feel that if people knew how to toggle efficiently they wouldn't complain about it at all. Kind of like how people complained about BR before they knew how to efficiently use it.

    Atm aoe are sometimes needed in leves. In every other situation (all but heals ofc) its useless since it even kills xp - in a normal sp party where you can claim only one mob and get the penalty of the not-red-yet mob which is stupid.

    If it was a good decision or not ... well i hope we can tell with 1.19 since i doubt that 1.18 will deliver half the changes im hoping for.
