Why care about the nerfs in the first place? Echo buffs can be toggled off and if you've already cleared AK pre-nerfs good for you.

I thought it was funny, because as BLM when I run it I've been with groups that will burn through the wall so fast it dies as the bees pop. No matter. Now I don't need to care about making bees not kill my healer when I run as tank. Nice. Not needed, but nice.
