so a smn, if hes able to bane a RS and contagioned set of dots to 4 targets does no massive aoe dmg? u can even save ur enkidle for that to have some aoe burst.
but i guess u can play smn or? and as i said - summoners should get their manacost reduced, so they can dot more targets without getting oom.

lol so u want to tell me, if a whm or a sch dies u instantly wipe the grp? if the WHM dies and u raise him, the bard will play a manasong and ull get ur mana back for sure.
same with the sch. Sure there are parts of the fight where u just cant die cause u need dmg or heal or whatever, but its not a wipe every single time.
