Has anyone else noticed that the Ranger staff skill Solar Beam is giving incorrect damage? I was testing it on the indestructable golem in HOTM, and it appears to be displaying total damage done instead of individual damage ticks. In game I find this to be problematic, especially when in a fight it appears I’m critting for a large number but its much less than what I thought.

Is this a bug or is this supposed to happen?

It’s a channeled skill, that’s how channeled skills work.

Mesmer’s greatsword autoattack has being doing this since launch.
