Ignite has always been powerful as long as you have some way of keeping your foe in place. If you don't, it's not that useful.
It's never been a skipper, it does enormous pseudo-single-target damage at near-autohit accuracy with huge DPE for all secondaries except Energy. If you thought it was a skipper, the extra 20' range won't make a difference to you.
While we're here - Ignite fans please note that the extra 20' puts it's range much closer to that of the Immobilises, and additionally makes it easier to cast through walls (yes, it requires no LOS).
Can someone tell me if the changes to this power have made it any more viable or is it still a skipper?
Salut.
Muerto.
