There seems to be some amount of misconception as to just how much damage the spell will be doing without factoring in anything that's going to be increasing the damage, on top of fundamentally shaving off the mana costs of the rest of your shadow spells.
As a side note we are lowering the mana cost of rank 3 a bit to keep a smooth curve of mana vs damage output. The change should be viewable in our next expansion talent and ability preview website update.
