This only shows what SM is capable of. This discipline has too much power, and it wasnt supposed to be like this. Making ~700 damage per normal hit is insane, and with Arcane Accel, you can deal hits like this at a very fast rate.
Not only warriors and archers complain about SM, mages also do so. Everyone knows we have a poor armour, blah blah blah, so it's very easy for us to get killed in a few hits. It's completly ridiculous to have locks/conjus dealing higher damage than Marks, who should be the ones having the highest damage output at ranged 1v1 combat.
Everyone is tired of getting killed by this kind damage. It's not only one player using it, at least on Horus. We have an entire realm filled with SM whores (wont say which one) ready to buff up and start killing.
I've already used a SM setup, wont lie about that, but then I realised how cheap it was, how overpowered it was, and it really shows lack of skill. So should a tree based on a complete lack of tactic win over trees which have skills, which make you think about which one is the best to use at which situation? (which spam)
I'm only sorry for the upcomming mage grinders, because I acknoledge how helpful SM is to grind ... too bad some use it at war
If SM was supposed to be the best Mage tree, then what are the other trees doing there?
