    A spell will be canceled if the character moves while it is being cast.
    This annoyed the crap out of me in XI, cuse I would run into battle then cast, on my screen i stopped, had a picnic, tied my shoe laces, then begn casting, but on the server I was still running for 2 seconds thus the server goes NO and interrupts me.

    Be that, all over again... yay....

    Agreed. The new sub-targeting option is a good thing, I don't see the need for the rest of the changes.

    This actually helps alot more in Ifrit because most of the times u were stuck in animation is because you can't cancel it in time, hence the community develop 'wait-for-ifrit-to-use-skill' strat.

    I know. But look at the people we are dealing with in this game.

    Edit: What I'm mainly talking about though is people not being able to cure tank because the a running from cracks and can't cast and run back like most do. And/or the back wave move will cause interruptions now causing it harder to heal. I won't and you won't but many people will like always,

    Also, you're not taking in factors like server lag, life sucks when three plumes appear under you all at once, being able to cancel on the run may not save you, but it will improve your chances.

    Biggest factor in many deaths on games are caused by peoples own stupidity. But they won't blame themselves. Now when the whm's get Eruptions under them with a tank low on hp or w/e and ends up dead. It's gonna = "Ifrit's to hard because of spell interruption." Just like Ifrit was to "hard" when combos came out.
