Let alone how out of all the things healers have lost over the years dying on the hill of range limitation is a weird one.
One man's fixed problem is another's further McDonaldization. I see it as another March further down the road to zero skill expression, dumbing jobs down to make Japanese party finder ever more consistent, etc. Buff range isn't a hill I'd die on, because I died several mountain ranges back. It's more evidence that Square continues the march forward on their horrible job design philosophy, and nothing we warn about here has any impact. Sylphies are the target audience.
