using a standard nova build you will get around 12 particles, so maybe 2400 damage max aoe, then with 30% from intensify for a standard slow build you would get a little over 3k damage. while its not terrible, its not exactly great either.

then again, if you want to theory craft for weak enemies like when speed-nova is viable it will probably one-shot anything around you, but yeah. its not like anything you would use speed-nova for is a challenge to begin with.

for hard things when you need a standard slow nova this just isnt going to be enough damage to really matter that much. the only thing that might be useful is the blast proc for some cc.
