    Aero AND Energy Drain is worth the difference of lacking Fester over a long duration (its even better).
    3 energy drain in cleric stance is worth 495 potency, requiring no setup of 3 DoTs to burst. In that time window, a SMN would need 7.5s to setup 3 dots. Fester has a 10s cooldown.
    lets ignore everything else for a second.
    what made you think I said smn is wanted for burst?
    I even said twice that smn has pretty bad burst. please actually read my post before giving me a p.s.

    so your planning on just using energy drain and aero?your going too setup those dots anyway.
    also if what you say is true then 3 energy drains and a aero= 1 fester.
    then first off,energy drain is on a 3 sec independent cd so 3=9seconds 1 off from a fester but uses all your aether too equal 1 aether charge of a single fester,which you then can use 2 more times while your 3 other energy drains are waiting for aetherflow for 50 more seconds.
    lets go too the best case scenario for your burst,a small weak add like a feather plume or something similar.yeah your right it would burst down the target faster then it would for smn too setup.but anything with more hp,you would do your damage be out of aether then have too setup anyway too finish him off and by that time a smn would have already set up and be on his 2 fester already wrecking your burst.
    even if there were no decent hp adds,were there is 1 small add there are many...then what?

    Bane is something a sch cant have access too and is even better if your spread with contagion,the ability too spread that amount of damage with only needing too setup on 1 target not only does a ton of damage but also lets you..yes spam more ruins then you could if you had too dot everyone one of them individually.
    so any questions?
