    Don't get me wrong, I think Nox is a great skill for boss kills but when purely looking at quick AoE Dmg, nox isn't all that great due to the fact that you need to charge it.

    At least that's my opinion about it

    Jay, you know I love you right? If dealing 45-55 DmG times 6(add 3 sec upgrade) to 6 mob members (thats 330 DmG each) is mediocre then we need to PM about what you're doin so I can copy it. With 290+ DmG I do 330 with a uncharged Nox (no crit). So if I can do that to 6 people all at once its worth charging all day(twice on Sundays).

    It is just the poison that is AOE, not the impact damage, right? Also, if you skip the charge and the to 6, can you at least get 3 with an uncharged? Why is there an option to upgrade "area AND number of targets"?

    Correct, the poison is what causes the AoE DmG. That poison DmG does as much DmG as a uncharged impact hit to six target over time though. Correct, a uncharged hit can poison 3 targets. Well why don't you just let two uncharged Bolts go? you can hit six anyway *one might ask* Well what about boss rushing Oltar for example, there could be more thatn six targets. Saying that one should just take the time to charge and poison 12 targets(thats if you circle mob while bowin). If poison last 6 seconds and it takes 2 seconds to cool, 2 seconds to charge and 1 second to tap AS to keep crit going..you can keep the mob on perma poison. I don't even want to do the math on how much DoT that is. To put it simply you will be wreckin sh*t without your name being Ralph...lol...they with call you The Green Plague...lol

    I will do some runs tonight replacing razor shield for now, won't charge though since I did a quick check on it (bad ping so can't do much) and it stacks. I always need to get my Aim out, and and to keep it stacked at full need it to be a quick tap which then gives the third "tap" to an auto or a smoke/trap. Is the 'area of effect' upgrade worth it?
