AoE is an abbreviation that means Area of Effect. Area of Effect can be any
spell or ability that causes splash damage to a target, or that will damage
multiple targets at one time. For example, the Elementalist skill, Firestorm
has a large AoE that will damage many enemies in such a short period of time.

AoE players are usually Elementalists or they can also be Rangers with traps
or the Elite Skill, Barrage. Regardless, groups will always welcome any player
that has many AoE’s to help dish out damage.

EXAMPLE: My Elementalist’s spells have a very large AoE!
