Wanna see how Bane was Buff/Nerfed for 3.0 "Spreads Bio, Miasma, and Bio II to all targets in range, the first 3 targets receive 100% potency with the 4th and beyond receiving 50%". Now I am no expert, but it seems to me like they evened out to 50% in the long run. But the new Bane will "Hit the first enemy with 100% the next with 80%, the third 60%, the fourth 40% and the fifth or beyond with 20%". Now again I'm no expert, but that looks like a bigger nerf than Holy ever got 50% is understandable, but 20% is pitiful.
20% of Bane is 126 potency, which is more than 50% of Holy which is 100. That's not counting the 250 potency of Shadowflare.

There is a difference in that you can't spam it though.
