    At no point does the aoe circle say when to cast. It does not tell you when to do anything.

    EXACTLY like hp mp and cooldown timers (being visible timers I mean). You may not like aoe circles but saying their spoon feeding you information opens your argument up for ridicule - as under similar situations is also many other pieces of information.

    It tells you when to cast that AoE when the unwanted mobs are out of the circle.

    If you consider that telling you when to do something then take this example:

    Casting blizzara - 200 mp, 10 second cooldown.

    Your mp is telling you how many/how many more blizzaras you can cast now
    Your cooldown timer is telling you when to cast it again

    you list a game mechanic as your defense, against Skillful manipulation of ability's being striped away. Whatever it takes to be right on a forum.

    Either way there is skill opportunities, not just the invisible way.

    (I dont disagree that knowing the invisible areas is a skill - but on the flip side there are also new tactics to consider for both player and developer designs when you can see/place aoes)
