What are you even talking about? There is no increase of time or skill penalty for casting over a large area or on a large target.
As for FP, that's what it's Energy Reserve of 35 is for. Even at a mere skill 16 (IQ 14 + Magery 4) it's only 19 FP to cover a 10 radius area. That's well over it's SM 4.
As for Dark Vision (19 FP/ER), as the GM you should either just be waving the cost multiplier (because it's cool for Dragons to buff themselves) or have it cast Infravision on itself for 11 ER.
I forgot there is no Gloom in DFRPG. I use it in my games, but then I use a lot of spells that were removed.
