Yes, I know there was a nerf, but in an ideal situation smiters can still do 51 dps for 10 seconds, and now with the 40% enchant axes thats 14 seconds of Bal Aura and 10 seconds of Ether Renewal, just like before. Also, while testing it out in CA I found I didn't notice any decrease in energy when using 5 energy spells and gaining only 3 in return. So why no go on the smiters?

and no im not looking for a sarcastic comment, like one I got in Team Arenas "cause they cut their wrists"..

A smiter's relies on aoe dps. Now after the 2-3 shot they will scatter until they stopped being damaged from the same skill. I will causing the mob to constantly flee while lowering your dps.

Personally I love aura more than ever in pve after the update. Might as well rename it as "don't hit me while i'm killing you."

Thank you for your input, however I was referring to a more PvP oriented situation.
