Consecrated Ground (from Paladin's Judgement) Damage and AoE need to be buffed

[feltesjr]

I’ve been testing using consecrated ground from Judgement as a main damage dealer, because I love how it scales uniquely with healing effectiveness, that’s a really cool mechanic!

However, the base damage and AoE seems a little too low to function properly. For example, even pushing it with about 500% healing effectiveness and 400% increased fire/dot/general damage, it still only does about 500-600 damage per second on most enemies for a skill that costs a ton of mana, requires a lot of investment, and has a tiny AoE.

I think it would be an excellent niche-but-functional skill and give the Paladin some extra uniqueness if the base damage were about doubled and the AoE increased by 50-80%. Also, please remove the cancelling consecrated ground healing that gates a lot of the damage nodes on the skill tree.

I agree with you, the skill itself looks nice but it is super weak and cost too much for what it does !

Just echoing what others have said here. At the moment it looks like Judgement is a support skill that can do damage on the side, not a skill that you can spec as a primary damaging skill as a solo Paladin.
