[dev 1042] Ability to toggle AoE on/off for Offensive/Defensive skills

[Evangela]

No. Some skills AoE, some don't. That's how the game is designed, deal with it. Single-target buffs or heals may not be that useful but they exist. All spells have the option of single or AoE on mage class, that's how it should be.

Attack skills (I'm assuming you mean weapon skills) have their own settings based on the skill. You have to learn to use it in the appropriate situation.

It's not fun to do this....

you don't need to do all of this....example..

Fire, z, enter. Cure3, z, enter. DONE.

No, you're not done.

First you need to spam it 3834834843 times until the mob dies... That's pressing the keys x2 times than a melee player, and if you happen to miss one of the 3834834843 times, you mob the whole map! How awesome!

All the people here are saying, having AoE on/off saved for each skill seperatly will make the game much more comforble gamewise. This is a much faster pace than FFXI was and you SPAM magic here, sometimes you have very small time.

It's only less noticable at the moment cause the game is easy, and if you happen to mob the whole map, party just get over it.

But if SE ever make harder areas (which will happen sometime), just watch how many times parties get wiped because of these poor controls.

I have never had a problem with AoE's causing aggro. If someone in my party happens to do this, it's as simple as Sleep, z, enter. It doesn't get much easier than this unless they give us separate spells for each spell that's an AoE form of that spell..which would not be a good idea with the current action bar. Honestly, if you can't handle pressing 1 button to toggle On or Off, this may not be the game for you.
