[Arcane Staff]: Charged Attack = Low Damage & Slow Charge Time

[Zeus]

While waiting for victims in TDM, I asked a rogue on my team with a devourer bow to fire a charged auto attack at trulle. And I did the same thing with my arcane staff. The devourer bow does more damage on a charged attack then arcane staff. How does an item which is worth 1k in CS do more damage then a weapon which costs 55m? I'd like to hear an explanation on that one.

I feel like what happened with the charged attack is that they added the spell damage, but they forgot to combine it with the weapon damage. So, the damage you are seeing is only the shadowflare damage.

Again, that is just my theory.
