yes I looked up my 51 spells and saw the dmg on pillar of frost seemed to be a massive upgrade from anything previous to it

It absolutely is. The difference in damage per point of mana ratio on Pillar as compared to Circle of Force (the most efficient targeted AoE up to that point) is absolutely huge. It proves to me that the original devs really underpowered every aspect of the Wizard class and they had to make up for it...
Example: Go quad HGs/Specs with pillar of frost when you get it. Absolutely night and day. Atol's shackles are also definitely worth the extra duration - also, little known fact - Atol's has a slightly larger targeted AoE radius...Mostly irrelevant, but I've had situations where it made a difference.
