SMN - knowing the class (part 1)

[Kevee]

Lol please tell me your kidding? Compare the dmg with other dps aoes and you'll see how bad the dmg is on shadow flare. I know dmg isn't going to be the same across the board for the dps classes but if you take the dmg of the aoes the other dps classes get and it blows shadow flare out of the water. Theres absolutely zero comparison.

Put it this way, my lvl 19 thaumaturge aoe does twice the dmg shadow flare does. My 18 archers aoe does more dmg. There's no way lvl 18 and 19 toons should be out dmging a lvl 50 spell. I don't see the logic in that.

Uh, first. My shadow Flare ticks for 60-70.

Second, it has 10 ticks.

That's 600-700 damage.

It's DAMAGE OVER TIME in addition to everything else we can do.
