You don't need strategy to kill NMs (great buffalo, dodore, etc) with a full party when there are players that can solo them. So your argument is moot.

Yeah, you can overcomplicate the currently simple jokes of NMs and go in like superman filling 3 roles on one character and say combat is complex and you need to be able to do everything at once, but the reality of it is, this is why the system doesn't work. No MMORPG on the planet has a system like this because it simply doesn't work. Players need strictly defined roles or there is no point in strategy, removing AOE toggle would just be one step closer to that goal, in my opinion.
a player has a defined role whether you like to admit it or not. it may not be defined that because i am a con i am a healer only, but it is defined. just because you are supposed to do multiple things and can only handle one just means you cannot handle your role.
