Shouldn’t this damage be part of the summoner damage as it wouldn’t be there without a summoner?

Summoner theorycrafting folks requested that it not be applied to the SMN’s damage, so I made that change in 4.2.

The reasoning was that since the damage is actually based off the stats of the players struck, it is in a certain sense a buff whose damage depends on the other players and not the summoner.
