It's still quite difficult to miss anything with the Mage LB since it follows the same rules as other placed AoE strikes (if the target is touching the telegraph at the moment right before the cast completes, it will be hit even if it has moved out of the animation). It's disappointing if the ranged LB is in fact the weakest of the three, but I don't have numbers to prove or disprove that.
