I'm not sure why they made another DOT spell is half as good as incinerate. Frostbite needs a %50 boost because the skill is horrible.

I can understand why you feel that way but the main reason is because of the fact that frostbite comes with initial damage dps, causing it to emulate other classes skills such as rupture, barbed shot, and rend as opposed to keep it the same as incinerate and strangling vines. For those who like to max their dps skills this might be part of the array of skills to their whim just like firebolt, firestorm, ice shards, and ice blast.

Actually, the initial damage at 40/40 does around 1.5k damage… AT MOST. Incinerate does 1k usually, while frostbite does 300-500 usually.

Huh? This skill is horrible for DPS.

Good DPS skills are:

Firebolt
ice shards
Firestorm
fire attune
um... ya that's it.
