Scout feels so sluggish in comparison. Sure if it was a turret class like magus and had some mechanic tied to being stationary I could see the length of setup being justified. If you take range and setup time (considering bw dot burst is mobile) its just doesnt add up. Thats why I think the debuff needs to be instant. Then it would play pretty similar to shaman. AM debuff instant. BW debuff instant dot. Zealot debuff instant aoe. Even Magus a turret class doesnt have debuff on a cast.
Completely true, it should be instant. Scout is in no way a good spec, the only reason it works is that by some miracle people fail to detaunt or LoS even when being hit 2 dots and Acid arrow, and too many people don't have a resist buff. Move into a 6v6 for example, and not only do you have a 4 second setup on target switches, but your damage is abyssmal against someone with guard and a resist buff. The tactic debuff doesn't stack so. Not only that, but you have AP enough for about 6-7 seconds of combat lol.
