You're missing the best use of this spell.. farming!
1 sec cast time is awesome, I'm working on smithing and need to farm large amounts of no drop items from owlbears and sonic wolves in ... hollowshade? Round up a train of about 20 mobs and blast 'em.. 90% of 'em will fall dead from one shot then just melee the few survivors. By the time you finish looting and get another train built up, the 2 mins is up and you can fire again.

Not just farming, but factioning.
I have a guildie tank with Earthshaker. He pulls all of Dranik Scar, pop's enrage, avoidance disc, and ES levels the entire pull in about 2 seconds. 78 mobs down for the count, nice factioning. However, to get faction you have to do damage to each mob. Enter a PB AE, with stun and dmg. If you just did dmg (ala Earthquake) it's possible that all 78 mobs would turn on you and have you for a snack. But with a 3 second stun you're guarenteed not to get snacked upon AND get OOW faction for tier1 armor in about 7 pulls (if the zone is up). Ok, maybe more but alot faster than without.

This is great if you are tanking... mobs just LOVE getting hit with stun!

I love the names of the spells for clerics... Clerics should have robes with light radiating from them... or breastplates with their god's signature on them (I am a DE cleric and a BP with the octopus thingy Innoruuk has stamped...) would be cool

Its a point blank AE, which means you gotta be within melee distance of the mob, maybe this is why its not working?
