Int pots + rs cool downs affect Summoner as well .
Yes and that is easily fixed by an increase in our mana pool by increasing how much mana we get per point of piety. At 4k mana, Aetherflow will return 800 points every minute and I believe the in combat regen is around 80 points every ~3 seconds, that's a total of 2400 mana per minute. That big of a pool summoner will sustain a lot longer and be able to maintain their dots across multiple targets better.
