AOE spell/ws only can hit maximum 8 mobs at the same time?

[viion]

I would seriously say that its ballancing, if you can oneshot 20 mobs with one AoE in a PL party you will be seeing lvl 50 in a few hours, only hitting 8 mobs makes it slightly longer.

That "slightly longer" is about 1 seconds longer.

A MRD for example can do 1 AOE then another one immediately after, then another immediately after that. (3k/2k/1k). Thus AOEing 24 targets in few seconds.

Much, much faster than conjurer can do since cons limited to 8 and then casting time.

When I dual boosted (2leech, 2pl) in Copperbell we would get 23 Ants, it was hilarious how fast they dropped when my buddy would AOE and I would just heal on Conjurer.

EDIT
It seems odd to be balancing due to this, but it doesn't seem to server issue. Back when PT size was 15 you could AOE your team and mobs higher than 8 entities.
