Fixing AOE In Warhammer Online

I never even thought of this simple fix until today.  Could it really be this easy to fix AOE in Warhammer Online once, and for all?  Is it a fix that isn't considered a nerf?

What is this great idea of mine?  It actually hit me like a ton of bricks after purchasing Dragon Age today, and installing it.  I created a mage, and received my first initial spells.  One of the basic starting spells is an AOE type spell.

Can you guess how it works?  It works just like any other AOE type spell, but it has one catch.  You know what the catch is?  Have you played a mage in Dragon Age, and know what it is?

Okay, so the suspense is killing you.  It is killing me writing this, and not just instantly telling you how it could be done.

This is how it would be done.  Every AOE spell has friendly fire.  Yup, it is that simple of a fix.  You spam AOE, and not only are you killing your enemies, but also any of your own faction who are within the AOE circle, cone, or whatever.

Do you think it would work in Warhammer Online to have friendly fire AOE spells?  I think it would be great because it would stop all the AOE nerfs with all the classes.  It would still make it viable in pve, and in some RvR situations.

It would end bomb groups, or idiots that just hold down W while hitting their 1 key spamming AOE every half a second?

Do you see any drawbacks of friendly fire AOE?
