Which is exactly the same as Grim Swathe, and all other Reaper cones, which also all hit.

Even if Overpower didn't hit that far around, it was not that far off, still encompassing most of the area I showed.
absolutely not, i remember having to be fairly far out in UWU ifrit to be able to hit both close nails as well while targeting the boss, im sure xeno has some footage of doing it himself somewhere

So, I suggest you please read thru this forums and catch yourself up on the discussion so far, you will see the explanations for how the cone was good for TANKING , not for DPS.
every role is a DPS with a different shade of red, i dunno about u but i can tell the difference w/o act when the healer is contributing next to nothing, or when a DPS is not aoing at all (sometimes even neither of them!) and it is very annoying

stop glorifying urself that tanking is slightly more complicated, the only addition to ur responsibility is to stack everything up nicely (and mitigate) so that everyone (as well as u) can hit everything and do max dmg
