i see… thanks, well i think is intentionally, is difficult to put all the info on a very small box, is sad to waste an attack with a long cooldown to just make base damage. So bad its no way to anticipate the misfortune of using this attack agaisnt the target that receives less damage from this attack.

by the way, how long seconds is the cooldown?
