But I think that damage at hero isnt all that bad for 2 to 3 rounds lag as well as ticks where they are earthbound. I mean at hero almost every class has at least one skill/sup/spell that does the same if not more damage.

I was thinking of still having it at low levels just really really weak, say like at rank 1 it does scratches, 10 it does decimates and so on. Like call lightning for example. Thats piss weak at low level compared to at hero where it can do some pretty nasty things. But yeah you can see my general idea.
