They really need to increase the aoe range on both bane and Enkindle. 5yd? really? Can't count how many times I've missed mobs with dots/dmg because the aoe range on Bane/Enkindle is so tiny. 10yd or perhaps 15yd would be nice.
Also the cd on Enkindle seems far to high considering how little dmg it actually does.
And yes we can compare Enkindle to Flare. Since they are both Lv50 spells, except that one of them can be casted over and over again(convert, elxir, ether etc), and does more dmg, where the other one got neither and 300sec cd.
