Actually, Flame Arrow can't be compared to SS/FB. 20ft tooltip splash is not the same across the board, this is another case of range inconsistencies. Fiery Blast, Choking Smoke, Fireball Barrage, Flame Arrow and Burning Head all have 20ft splash on tooltip, but Fiery Blast and Choking Smoke actually has a bigger splash than the rest of them.

The main reason for the proposal is that the SH's version of the ability is already at 100 feet so why not ours?

You can't just go around changing the damage of an ability that does aoe damage that with a tactic will just do FULL damage to everyone, it can get really out of hand really quickly. Trying to tune an ability like this that bypasses all resistances needs to be handled carefully and changing this would have a lot of SH players expecting some similar damage buff to their mirrored ability, and SH already have so much more damage then us so lets not dig a deeper hole. Plus we have VoN to boost the damage of 2 abilities that bypass resistances, that's a fair amount of damage i would say.

The damage this ability deals with enchanted arrows is noticeable in my opinion. Id suggest you check it out if you haven't. I didn't suggest a flame arrow damage buff cause the only issue i have trying to use this thing is the range being 80ft, change it to 100ft first, and then start talking about damage changes possibly.

Edit: Flame Arrow already has a tactic that increases its own damage

Rejecting because of reasons stated elsewhere: requires a larger discussion than this one ability.
