it's the opposite the only way to increase the ruin dmg was to make them scale from dots. they didn't give a third dot in ruination for nothing

Well then I guess SMN is borderline useless in most content as target switching to adds in boss fights is a thing at most fights.

who knew that listening to everything the fan base wanted didn't necessarily mean they knew wtf they were doing or wtf they wanted.

Well, having to precast Dots so that Ruin deals damage is not good at all when dealing with low HP targets.

You cast DoTs because it's a big part of your DPS toolkit. If anything they need to change it back to 50 potency like it was prior to 5.0. DoTs are so easy to cast on low HP targets too, Tri-D > Bane > go to work. You shouldn't have to switch target during a boos fight, just bane.

Tri-D on cooldown
Bane out of range at other targets.
It happens, a lot.
And don't give me a "it doesn't happen in organized runs" because that's like 1% of the game.
