    I honestly do not understand why they nerfed it so hard. It was a legitimate strategy and one tool casters could use to scatter people, sow a little discord. Most intelligent pre-mades already knew how to deal with it, so I'm assuming it was done to appease the casuals, yet again. One of the many 2.4 changes to Frontline that has made things simply ... not fun any more.

    How to deal with it? Really? How do you deal with an AoE that, if real, will likely wipe you out? You can do TWO things: stand in it, or run out of it. Those are quite literally the only two options. Party-wide CDs won't much help against them, either. At least not before PLD's Tetsudo was party-wide.

    There was no way for any group, not even a premade, to properly "deal with it", unless by that you mean "take it in the face".

    Don't make up your own logic to try to make this change into a premade ("hardcore") vs. casuals debate. Get off your high horse and, if you want to argue the change, find a real argument.
