SMN AOE damage advice

[Sen_Terrechant]

A few correction.:

Bane has a target limit of 3 additional monsters, so it's not all mobs in a pack and with good reasons. No target limit would be broken.
Enkindle is not the DoT extender, that's Contagion. Enkindle is the 5 minute CD for the Pet's Signature move.

This.

Garudas Enkindle is a pretty decent AoE nuke.

Ifrits Enkindle is a single target DoT.

Titans Enkindle is a GTAoE DoT ala Shadowflare

I haven't used it in a while but I'm pretty sure Ifrit's Enkindle is AoE damage of 200 potency with an AoE 20 potency DoT accompanying it.

I honestly dont use Ifrit enough to know, so you may be right!

Hmm I tend to use ifrit if it's just a boss with no or minimal ads and I'm almost positive that it is just a single target direct damage with additional damage over time, I may be wrong ill double check tonight but I'm almost positive o.O

That is correct, the DoT applies to all the target hit.

All the Enkindle abilities are AoE, just different types off AoE is all.

Ah right so ifrits is just a less potent aoe thanks :P

[Aanmer]

Ifrit isn't even a thing. He's just there to make you looker cooler. He really needs a buff but it probably wont happen until pet revamp in 3.0; since summoners with Garuda are already competitive DPS. I don't see Ifrit being useful for awhile.

On Garuda Trisasta is working fine because then you give other players Time for their AoE while you casting Bane, if fast enough (you need some practice for timing) you get miasma2 on them too...
Shadoflare should be up before Garuda arrives on her spot...

The description of Bane states it has a 25 yalm range...then when landed on a centrally located mob, it infects "all" mobs in an 8 yalm range. Here, I copied it, so this is the paste.

8y aoe Spreads a target's Bio, Bio II, or Miasma to all nearby enemies. Duration: Time remaining on original effect. If the target is under the effect of Aetherflow, 15% chance that Bio, Bio II, or Miasma duration resets.

. . .Odd that your copy/paste is completely and utterly different from what mine says.

Shadowflare shouldn't be precasted before the pull else it will not benefit from RS. Tri-Disaster is also way too long of a cast time to time perfectly on Garuda due to the speed at which the feathers go away from her.
