Does the seperation between individual targetting and area targetting spells bother anyone else? I understand where they're coming from in saying that it takes more concentration/control to limit the area of a spell than it does to just bust it out at full strength, but you don't see a similar modifier for casting a spell at a lower force do you?

I think my main annoyance is at having to buy a spell twice if I want to be able to use it on an individual and groups.
