AOE spells should be sped up

With the recent animation change to 'Call of Khrulhu' speeding the spell up immensely, it just leaves more to be desired. Why can't every AoE spell in the game attack all 4 enemies at once? Some of them, such as Ra or Humongo Frog could really use an animation speed up. It would make them less painfully slow.

They only made call of krhulu sped up because it took SOOOOOOOO
long

The rest aren't that long.

I agree! Even if they don't take an excessive amount of time it would still be cool to see the Frost Giant animation hit all four enemies with his hammer at once, as opposed to going through the same animation four times. Ra's sun ray gets rather boring really fast when he's your highest attack all spell for several levels (I'm a transcendental sorcerer). Storm Lord would be absolutely phenomenal to see his lightning strike at once.

I'm getting more and more excited the more I think about how all the different attack all spells could be animated. Tempest, Sandstorm, Snow Angel, Earthquake, Scarecrow, Meteor Strike, Blizzard. They're all amazing in their own right, but it would be a breath of fresh air to see an animation upgrade!

I think many would argue that Forest Lord is incredibly long also. Though I don't understand why people didn't really ever complain about Scarecrow, as it effectively does the same thing as Khrulu? I think that the main culprit is the using of traps and blades too.

Well, If they started working on this right now, it would take till Spring 2018 to implement it into all AoE spells. Some AoEs are best when one at a time, (ex. Sandstorm could prob fall into this, Humongofrog.)
