Which AOE Nuke has the Widest Splash Damage Range?

This includes big boom and merrow, wondering which nuker class, or summon has the widest splash damage range? i think its corpse burst but not sure.. anyone have any stats?

thnx

Big Boom is by far the greatest.

from a true-nuker point of view, probably the sorc/spellsinger do.

played a sorc - rain of fire, mixed with Blazing circle, after using Flamestrike to pull is suicidal, but effective against 1/2 hp mobs. ... but only when you have empower and BSPS.

I think that frost wall has a fairly large (albeit strange) angle - however, if you count the whole area of the big boom explosion, not just the center, that must be it.

It sure as hell ain't Corpse Burst, Lol.

Besides the level 80 ones, they all generally have the same radius.

Frost wall is the one that casts at point blank range too, not the best of ideas.

Big Boom. Whirlwind has quite a large area too :)

Rain of Fire has a very small radius, but looks cool. Blazing Circle has a large radius.

kwl thnx for the replies, what about merrow?

Same (I have an ES~).

My favorite is definately Corpse Burst though. Fastest casting.... fastest cool down... it does full damage (all other aoes do half damage). It has one drawback (needs a corpse) but this does little to stop me when it matters.

same as what?

Same range as all the other aoes. Though... since it is on a servitor.. it is inherently weaker.

all the aoe's dont have the same range... bit more specific?

as of C4 rules:

Changes to Area Attack Skills

1) Physical/magical offensive area skills used by players are now applied to limited number of targets. However, during PvP, all players within the area will be affected. The skill effect is limited to 20 targets and it is unaffected by enchantment. The area skills of monsters/summons are unaffected.

The power of Boom Attack of Summon Big Boom now decreases as it becomes more distant, while its central power has been increased.

aquasplash has a wider range then frostwall and corpse burst, as is the blazing circle or whatever, yea i know its limited to 20, which aoe is he talking bout?

Corpse Burst does NOT have the same damage as a nuke.

Skill description -Explodes a dead body to attack a nearby enemy. Power 33.

i'm beginning to think bhodosativa talks out of his rear most of the time...

Unless you're talking about the PS summon's corpse burst (which I don't know anything about) corpse burst has the same power as death spike, learned as the same level.

All the skill descriptions state Corpse Burst (2) Explodes a dead body to attack a nearby enemy. Power 33.

at lvl 48 - death spike is level 60 at that level - has the damage been changed?

I don't know where did you read it, but "races, classes & skills" section here says:
48 Corpse Burst 2 44 0 27000 Causes a nearby corpse to suddenly explode. Power 65.

read the power values for the other AOE nukes and compare it to that one.

youll see Corpse burst has 2x the power of the other aoe nukes.

corpse burst has much different requirements to cast though.

BTW I heard Merrow's attack is the only one not affected by AoE nerf, so it can still attack infinite number of mobs as long as they are in range of that splash. Does it still hold true?

kwl necro here i come lol

kwl necro here i come lol

not so fast.

are you aware that a bishop can kill you ?

wldnt that apply a bit less to necro's? lol since they can nuke

please elaborate, Spud- I'm interested to hear this.
