Does Smoke Cloud Need a Buff?

[LaSpeakeasi]

Thematically it's really cool. But so far I'm not impressed with its usage. Maybe because my Devil is a gunslinger rogue.

 

While Distraction is a somewhat useful status ailment, Its duration isn't typically long enough for a gunslinger rogue to follow up with a sneak attack.

 

Also, it almost only hits adjacent enemies. I mean, its AoE is really small, smaller than your average Cipher spell or Wizards' arcane blast, in fact. It would be more useful if it gets an enlarged AoE, or if I could throw it at a distance to benefit the frontline fighters.

 

What do you think?
