Where it sits on the curve
Measured the same way as our efficiency tier list: total damage divided by Energy.
Iron Wave produces 5.00 per Energy at base and <strong>7.00</strong> upgraded. That ranks it 121 of 143 of the 143 attacks with a fixed cost. It sits in the top 16% on this measure.
The measure ignores everything that is not a number. Area damage, conditions and drawbacks are not priced in.
