Was gonna go in more depth about it, but I'm relatively new to the forums and had a character limit. Original post was about 5,000 characters.

Did the math with it. Tri Disaster and contagion went from around 1440 potency with everything... to about 880 potency...
Or how removing Spur takes enkindle from 490 potency to 350.

Smn just losing massive amounts of potencies at every turn, and Im just watching every other class outdoors me and drooling. Saw a samurai screenshot do just shy of 50k in a single hit. Im lucky if Ahk morn does 18k

Smn just feels overshadowed by everything
