<p>Honest question if PoM is overpowered which i dont personally think it is, why arn't the following AA's being nerfed also:</p><p>Wizard - Enhance Icelash Inquisitor - Fanatical Devotion</p><p>Both are similar to PoM, and hell I know for sure that 'Fanatical Devotion' does at least as much as PoM if not more.</p>

<p>Illusionist.PoM: 265 DPSIce Lash: 120 DPSPotM: 145 DPS</p><p>Warlock.PoM: 145 DPSIce Lash: 93 DPSPotM: 92 DPS</p><p>Wizard.PoM: 147 DPSIce Lash: 85 DPSPotM: 121 DPS</p><p>These are the numbers from a Tombs zonewide, as it is what I happen to have open on ACT right now.</p><p>Looking at that, it is obvious to see that PoM is doing more damage than the other procs. This in itself is enough to warrent a nerf.</p><p>With these numbers, Ice Lash has 5 points spent to enhance it by 25%. Those 5 achievement point increased the DPS for these three mages by a combined total of about 65 DPS, or 13 DPS per achievement point (it has 5 points spent in the EoF line as well, fut coming up with an accurate figure for the damage that adds is more than I want to do right now). Since PoM is a single point, and it increased the DPS of these three mages by a total of 557, it added 557 DPS to them per point.</p><p>557 DPS for a point vs 13 DPS for a point.</p><p>please, keep complaining about it, it does nothing but bring more attention to the fact that enchanters are overpowered and are the next class in line for a decient sized nerf.</p><p> Do you actually not understand the difference between a spell + achievements, a spell + mythical effect and just an achievement? Ice Lash as you see it on a parse is a spell + 10 achievement points, PotM as you see it on a parse is a spell + one of 2 major effects on the troubador mythical.</p><p>PoM is a single achievement point.</p>

<p>As an ex Coercer main, and a "used to be" very loud complainer about how the Coercer was treated before "the big fix" I simply pass this on to you for historical reasons. SoE can not control itself when screwing around with the Coercer. Coercers would have never gotten the big fix if it wasn't for the huge numbers of betrayals, those that quit or like me, those who quit playing thier Coercers. I can guarantee you that complaining about other class abilities will get you no where. And actually complaining in general will get you no where either. This is simply the start of the continued assault on the Coercer that a year or two down the road will end in another "big fix" for the Coercer that will be required. If I were you, I'd be expecting more nerfs coming to your class soon. Like I said, SoE simply can't help themselves.</p>

<p>it's stupid to ask for other classes to be nerfed, and childish.</p><p>the thing is they fixed us few months ago and now ... they restart to nerf.</p><p>anyway, if PoM is really overpowered compared to other buffs of that type, maybe it is needed to be nerfed. Now that enchanters approches the dps of wiz, if they get better damage proc buffs, wizz won't be wanted anymore.</p><p>It has to be balanced.</p>
