Opinion: Living Shadow should be a trait that replaces Darkside.

[Otorinth]

Activating Edge/Flood of Shadow at level 70 should just summon the Living Shadow and it does the amount of damage you would have gained from Darkside.

Wait, what? So, it would never go away? Are you just getting rid of Darkside? We can have Darkside on WHILE Living Shadow is active. How does this increase damage? You do know that the Shadow doesn't instantly snap to another target the same time you attack it, right? You can get in a gcd or two while it's being spawned, meaning you`re losing that 10% when it's not actively attacking.

Why is the DRK level 80 skill just a trait instead of an attack? Does this mean we don't get Darkside until max level? If this is replacing Darkside at the level we get it (30), what the hell do we get at 80?
I'd rather just leave it as a bad-ass looking DOT or at least work some way in it helping defensively alongside it.
