    Please give AoE abilities earlier

    It is a small QoL adjustment for a few jobs but could it be possible at least for DPS to have their basic AoE ability not their combo just the most basic AoE ability at lv15-18 please, yes it only effects for 15-30 levels in ARR but could start teaching all new players to AoE earlier.

    Jobs would apply to:
    DRG - Doom spike from lv40 to lv15
    SMN - Bane from lv30 to lv 15
    MNK - Rockbreaker from lv 30 to lv 15
    NIN - Death Blossom from lv38 to lv15
    SAM - Fuga from lv26 to lv15

    Yes it is a small list but it just makes me feel bad when a tank and healer duo can handle big pulls in the lower level content and i just have to spam 1,2 combo on Nin etc on single target, i'm just asking for the barest AoE ability for all DPS jobs(healers could use their ones earlier too but i want to focus on DPS)

    I wish some attacks didn't need to have an enemy locked on honestly. Just let me run and smash overpower.

    Probably wouldn't include SMN in the list mostly because the caster pet is capable of aoe, even more so now in ShB since it's auto attack was made in to an aoe effect. Although moving forward to dungeons at higher levels, a number of players still don't aoe (or use the most efficient ones) so I'm not so optimistic teaching it early on would make much difference.

    While the pet does aoe and you can use egi assault i thought it best to have the aoe equivalent to fester earlier to try and teach newer players to DoT up and spread to multiple targets as early as possible. Also compare SMN to BLM and RDM and they have a bit more to do in an AoE situation.

    Please put Freeze up there in the list. Fire 2 is horrible.

    I Agree,agree,agree,agreeee.
    I am complaining every single day when I end up in low level dungeon for lack of a basic aoe skill.
