However adding -ga spells to your bar WOULD take up precious space, unnecessarily so mind you.
Your post makes perfect sense, but you don't seem to understand that since -ga spells were in XI, they need to be implemented in XIV in the exact same way, and the current feature which serves the same purpose more efficiently should be done away with. That way I feel more like I'm playing Final Fantasy XI.

If -ga spells are implemented into XIV, I would hope that they would be more interesting than AoE versions of the spells that we all ready have. Example, they could be spells that two mages can cast together after gaining a buff from completing a battle regimen.

It's obvious that people want them, but getting rid of perfectly functioning battle mechanics to introduce them is just backwards.
