It would be nice to have back the button to take off shadowflare.

I was talking about the Shadow Flare :)

Right now with a SMN ilvl 230 the profile is giving me 1300 dps, i think its too low, using OPENER , CDS , 2F/1P , GARUDA, Virus , Contagion and Swift Flare options ON.

ilvl 236 - initial burst (single target) 2600 - 1560 @ 5 min. Openers totally acceptable, sustained dps is above average (for solo target) but i find this converts higher in actual savage raid numbers, will this make you a top tier smn ? No. Will this make you a pretty solid raid smn ? Yes.

Sure it is, but if i like Aoe without shadowflare then is there no possibility.

It's a weird idea, not sure why you would like doing less DPS.

Well, the skill has a casttime and in many situations the use of shadowflare is not necessary. For example at the end of the fight it is not possible to interupt it by myself. There was an option before and would be great to have it back because then everybody can decide for themselves.
Sometimes it is placed on a weird position - when the tank is pulling the adds together. Shadowflare on one target is not necessary, too. Today happend at one hunting mob.

What ever, i don't see a problem to give me back the button. Some others classes have some more...

Thats why there is a quick toggle for aoe stuff

you can have it off while gathering adds up and turn it on when they are grouped.

wait till adds have all been pulled - you have plenty of time ... dont push a button till they have finally stopped. Tri disaster > bane. really no real dps loss or issue. even on single target its always a dps gain if done at the appropriate time.

Tyvm Mutantx!! Exactly what i needed to know!

And about the Shadow Flare, can the profile cast "Swift + Shadow Flare" for Single Targets? I ask cuz if i let the Aoe option on, the profile will cast Shadow Flare with Swift or Without the Swift, but i think that Shadow Flare is a nice dps adition for Single Target too, i just wish a option to let it be casted only if swiftcast is available. (Again, sorry for my bad English. Hope u can understand what i mean.)

Well, i would prefer a option to adjust shadowflare. It doesn't make sense when my character cast again shadowflare if my enemy has only 5% life. For example by addgroups.
