    t4 aoe burn phase usually lasts 40-50 seconds (depending on everyone's dps) and has 6 targets. let me give you an example on how much dps a summoner can dish out during that time span.

    bio2,miasma,bio full duration averages at 2250 and all falls off after 30 seconds, bane only hits 4 targets.

    a total of 15 second cast time to hit all 6 targets.

    *3 combo dots 2250 x6 = 13500 damage, 15 seconds cast time total ( have to cast twice cause of bane only hitting 4 targets)
    *miasma II x6 intial and dot 50 + 125 x6, casted twice during the phase = 2000 damage, 5 second gcd total
    *thunder each target 602 damage each, x6 = 3612, total of 15 seconds cast time.
    *rouse + spur enkindle, 950 x6 = 5700 damage, no cast time, rouse and spur during gcds
    *rouse + spur aerial slash 250 x6 casted twice during the fight = 3000 damage, no cast time, rouse and spur during gcds
    *shadowflare 900 damage full duration x6 = 5400, usually free because you cast it before the adds spawn or when tanks are positioning everything.
    * pet will attack roughly ten times during the phase, 195 x 10 = 1950

    that's a total of 34622 aoe damage in under 40 seconds, or 41546 damage total with raging strikes. edit: minus the 5 thunders and enkindle and shadowflare, because raging strikes will not last long enough to affect the 5 thunders being casted, enkindle doesn't benefit from raging strikes and nor does shadowflare) maybe total is around 37-38000, not sure.

    what's even scarier is I haven't even included crits in this calculation. nor a determination food buff and a pot.

    my crit is 511 and I don't know how to calculate all this damage with my current crit rating.

    edit/additional: haven't included foe requiem too... I also skipped contagion so it wont complicate things.
