Hi i was just wondering if there is a chance to do something about balancing out aoe skills in each tree... because it feels like lightning boom is OP compared to ground attack or twister in every part of it(poisoning nova is fine in it's own way i guess) .... damage,charges,cp usage,splash area....and probably nobody is using them because of it :hmpf:

Twister did get a huge boost as it hits in way higher rate than before.

UP you miss my point ... i am saying ground attack is useless in all aspects comparing to lightning boom as AOE... i am not comparing whole lightning tree to earth tree because each has its good sides... and blood earth doesnt make up for this difference because it stuns...

Exactly... if you dont pick lightning boom you dont have any other skills from the earth tree for aoe lvling ... so make them even in that matter... besides why would you keep a useless skill in game ... if you dont want to change it then its the same as if you would remove it... if no one picks it then there is no meaning in it, is there ?

From what i can see GMs did a fine job in many skills since beta so keep up the good work :)
