Thought Experiment on AoE Buttons

[Semirhage]

Hole-poking in the theorycraft: Deep Dungeons. I want to carefully pull mob X while not alerting mob Y. Now, the vast majority of XIV's content doesn't require that kind of care or finesse in a multi-target scenario, but it would largely delete the ability to carefully manage actually dangerous non-boss encounters.

Whether that's an acceptable loss is up to you.

That's a fair point, and I do engage with deep dungeons myself. In this take, you could still use Cascade though and pull the mob to the hallway. There are some potentially tight situations, but as long as not literally every button is consequently AoE, it's not an unavoidable circumstance. And Dancer already has to be mindful of its steps far more than what would likely be like an 8 yalm AoE max.
