    Circular AoEs are... decent-ish(?) for DPS, since they have no need to maneuver mobs -- though inferior even then, especially if one needs to dodge out of AoEs while maintaining uptime on all enemies.

    For tanks, though, they're pretty shit altogether; that lost range means that the moment mobs end up on the far side of others with large collision circles, or cast anything, etc., you're unlikely to hit all while repositioning.

    ...Not to mention having to wait until they're in range to hit you for you to hit them, or that maximizing its effective target count means reducing the effective target count of casters' (and certain physical ranged skills') target-centered circular AoEs....
