Right, which basically means that if you don't want to hit all of the coblyns that are surrounding you, you're going to have to equip Aero I, and Aero II, because Aero II will be AoE, while Aero I isn't. It's the same problem as making Aeroga II ala XI's system. All I want is one version of the spell on my bar. I'm a CON, I get spells of every element, and I don't want my bar gummed up with two spells of the same element in varying strengths just so that I don't aggro every mob in my general vicinity.

If they just made every spell AoE then CON would easily be the most frustrating experience ever, for everyone.
