    I have never bothered chaining Banes yet cause I don't really do AoE parties on my SMN but I do on my SCH and I use my stacks for other stuffs. That being said, if you chain Bane does it spread to mobs without debuffs from you already or can you hit the same mob over and over again? Thus, wasting your stacks.

    As it does not specify, I can only assume it goes to the nearest 3 other targets, so unless you pull one away you will always hit the one you baned from first.

    Plus there's a 10 second cooldown on Bane, so your duration on your DoTs will mostly be up anyway unless they were extended by contagion or refreshed on one of the secondary targets by the Bane proc.

    You're probably better off just waiting until it's time to refresh your DoTs anyway.
