Arcane destruction - full potentiall for 1 point

[Radon26]

Arcane destruction, while a big talent, its not only unnecessary, but a WASTE to put more than 1 point in it.

1st point gives you an explosion on every successful crit.
The next point however, gives a few PP.

while explosion is really good, actually maybe TOO good, the tiny PP increase is unacceptable.
I think this talent could use a bit rebalancing.

what are your opinions on that?

[Dao Zeti]

I completely agree. Either the AoE Damage should scale with Talent Level or the chance for it to trigger should somehow not only depend on your critchance but also on Talent Level. As it is, there really is hardly any reason to put in more than one point.

fixed

DG, can you tell us what you changed?

[HousePet]

Damage now scales from around 1xSpellpower at level 1 to 2.2xSpellpower at level 5.
Also the radius is now only 1 until talent level 5.
These values are effective talent level.

[Effigy]

Ah, ok. So to clarify, 1/5 still works the same apart from reduced radius? Or do you need 5/5 to match the current damage?

[HousePet]

You need effective talent of about 4.9 to get current 1 point damage.
Effective talent level 1 is only half the current damage.

[Radon26]

if i get 5/5, increase mastery and get amulet of mastery, is it possible to get radius 3?

[HousePet]

Nope, capped at 2.

Is it just me or is everything about the Arcane Blade getting nerfed recently except the spell/stone tech/arcane combat earthen missile spam and physical damage stacking that actually represents most of the class's excessive power and most sidelines alternative builds?
