As a player who prefers to play with battle animations turned off to see mechanics and character positions better, it would be incredibly helpful if there was a setting to turn off harmful effects from your party (such as Shadow Flare, Salted Earth and the like) but keep beneficial effects (Asylum, Sacred Soil, Collective Unconcious etc). For some reason this is already the case for Earthly Star which can be seen even if all animations are turned off.

Sincerely,

That one DPS who missed the Asylum again
