AOE spells take around 3 seconds to cast, and then there are wayyyy too many LOS issues to compramise with. You cant aoe down, or up, or across, or behind a pebble.... and 500 damage to each person in 3 seconds is almost poor in my oppinion. On testlive when your against a group with 2x healers, the damage is more of a small nuisance, not quite the all powerful aoe you would have thought from the main AOE/DPS class in the game (from the description). The burst DPS of single target FOG is awesome however, and in comparisoon the aoe if against a group with lots of un-cc'd healers is low damage

Yes our buffs are pretty useful, but our hp is still too lwo compared to other classes. And to be honest, an AOE damage margin of over 100% is extreme. 400-800.....that 800 is mroe of a crit, and AOE's hardly ever crit, so you are generally hitting 450-550 (on testlive). Our aoe does need a damage margin reduction, giving it a higher overall dps ration than 500 for 3 seconds...makes FOG and instant casts much more efficient than what SHOULD be our best group dps form.
