Connecting the DoTs: A Summoner Guide

[Havenchild]

With my current opener with no summon swap, which essentially only has Ruin IIs, by the time I hit the last Fester and use AF which gives me 599 MP, I am not hitting full MP, still under 300 at least from cap. Thus you are sacrificing raw damage. Even if you were to switch all the Ruin IIs with Ruin I in the opener, you're sacrificing AAs, and the MP saved is probably like 3 to 4 ruins so roughly 212 MP.

My point is the MP you gain from AF isn't higher then the MP you've used up til this point thus just costing you MP and damage no matter how you execute it. We haven't even factored in the MP required for this swap yet, which is still at the least 320 mp if we converted to Ruin I's.
