Ok this is with Altrax kneeling and me with a little over expert TM and near 300 PM.
You come out of hiding.
You sharply inhale, drawing upon the power of your internalized fire, then violently spit a bolt of churning flame toward Altrax!
The incendiary spittle blasts Altrax in his chest!
Roundtime: 1 second.
You sharply inhale, drawing upon the power of your internalized fire, then violently spit a bolt of churning flame toward Altrax!
The incendiary spittle blasts Altrax in his abdomen!
Your throat contracts suddenly, growing cooler as your Dragon's Breath spell dissipates.
Roundtime: 1 second.
He came out of that with only cuts and bruises. Also thats him without SoTT. Can anyone tell me whats wrong with the picture?

DB one-hit kills the highest-circle moon mage here in Plat. If you don't want it, I'll gladly take it. I owe that bugger a burn or three.

Personally I have no complaints about DB whatsoever. It does have a pretty broad range of power, however ... I have blown gaping holes in a +90 paladin decked out in all protective spells and I've also stunned (i.e., not one-shot killed) a gypsy marauder using a single exhale. Perhaps you just got a weak one this time.
If you want guaranteed annihilation, cast a normal spell and cram all the mana you can fit into it. For sheer convenience and that intangible "fun" factor, I don't see how you could hope for more than DB has to offer.

Having dealt with DB on quiet a few occasions in TF, I can tell you that it is a very powerful spell. In fact, I'd say it was overpowered but no one here wants to hear 1000 WMs screaming about how wrong I am so I wont. DB is a great spell aslong as you arent using it with 300 TM on someone with probably 500 or more evasion

<<You also only got 2 spits. Put more mana into it. >>
Hmm ... maybe it's a function of my skill level but adding more mana doesn't increase the number of spits for me, it only increases how long the spell lasts. The only thing I've found that increases the number of spits is letting the spell "age" a bit before using it. If you cast and spit immediately, you'll rarely get many but if you cast then wait ten minutes or so before using it you'll find better results.

>I don't think i was facing him i thought you automatically did after you spit
Nope, no spell that I know of auto-faces.

>>probably just your skill level
Probably not. Gizella, is that just a perception for you, or have you tested it at all? When I tested DB on preview, at around the same mana sometimes I would get 2 spits, sometimes 4, but I don't remember how long I waited between casting and spitting. If I can get more spits out of the spell, it might be more worthwhile for me, because it was iffy during spell preview.

Don't forget that in between spits, you could be prepping and casting other spells as well...
patch, spit, lash, spit, vert, spit, shard...
And it's real nice as the third, fourth, and fifth attacks before incurring roundtime, or wait time of some other form. Some misc. spell, spit, spit, spit, attack with weapon.

I spit in your general direction...WHOOOOOOSH
