It does not even remotely inflict as much damage as it's supposed to, with "as it's supposed to" meaning "as the skill tab claims". I found my L31 Inferno, at around 1100-1200 displayed damage per second, completely outperformed by L4 Blizzard.
It seems that the first few Inferno flames inflict the correct amount of damage, perhaps even more than that. Everything beyond that point, however, is far weaker than it should be. As a result, the "optimal" way to use Inferno right now seems to consist of only tapping the mouse button briefly, as opposed to holding it down as one would expect.
I understand that the Druid's Arctic Blast suffers from a similar problem, though I haven't tried it myself. It does appear weird that the monster versions of these skills seem greatly enhanced, whereas the player skills are bugged and nearly unusable.
