Bane

velzevul · 04-11-2007, 10:32 PM

Xaices said it is suppose to be the killer nuke...

it does just about same damage as WoD of last level, and it also kills DC 5->0, and if I hear it right, it is only usable at DC5.....

Well folks, with those pathetic properties, it needs to have no recast, be free of mana, and be instant cast nuke with a snare root slow freeze bleeding and a stun for 15 seconds at least. Did I meantion it needs to lifetap?

you get the point, it needs a revamp. It is just useless otherwise. In the time it takes you to get to lvl 5 DC, your WoD will be up.

Just like what Velzevul said... Bane is FREAKING PATHETIC! killer nuke?? I don't think so.

It's a joke, and I see no indication of their supposed increased damage increase. It's still hitting for 4k. /yawn

It looks like Cull, Word of Doom and Bane did not get their damage increased at all, despite the patch notes.

WoD did see some love from what I can tell.

Not sure On cull since I refused to get it if it had stun attached.

I have cull 2 and with a 10 second cooldown and a 1.5 sec cast @ lvl 47, I hit for 500 on average. That is absolutely nothing even at level 40 when you get it.

From what Ive heard about Bane, its just like WoD was. Supposed to be class flavor for level 50... you know, something to brag about having because you are 50 and you made it. It cannot be doing the intended damage. Xaices PLEASE address this

btw invulnerability doesnt render you invulnerable to spell effect. Ie you take no dmg from an ice nuke, but you are chain stunned just as always.

Well the changes are nice but somethings still arent on par.

Bane had its changes implemented on the vendor, Vendor stated Bane does 4800-5000 or so, but when purchasing the spell and applying the actual spell IT reads 3000-3200. I dunno if this is a bug or not..
I tested is several times last night as well and it nukes for around 3500 with DC5 ( consumes DC5 as usual) 6 second cast time. This is exactly what it was before the patch.

Also Tested Incantation of Hate Several times (LVl 50 instant nuke deals between 4800-5k dmg, 10min refresher) The spell is resisted 9 out of 10times with dc 5 and the 1 time it hit it only nuked a mob for 147???? Xaices please test this yourself if you can.

I think the vendor listed damage is the Max for the spell with max intel. I may be totally wrong here, but your current damage listed after you memorize the spell is calculated by your present intel. The 5k listed on vendor would be the max for that spell maybe based on max intel?

If you guys want the big booming nukes, your going to have to jack up your intel.

Yeah I refuse to get abilities that heal me too. They suck!

With 105% bonus to my spells, I hit for only a few hundred more than my final rank of WoD. This skill desperately needs to be increased. With the damage, cast time, cooldown, and drawback, it will never be used.
