Is this skill glitchy?

The undaunted skill Trapping Webs: morphed to "Shadow Silk"
I can't tell if people simply are not activating my synergies or if the synergy is mostly not working, but I almost NEVER see my little spiders spawn.
According to this tooltip, the damage is quite good. Especially considering the cost.

initial damage 8858 + 10665 + 2328 for each little spider bite + 25458 poison over 10 seconds = 49,647 if each little spider only bites one time.




Any ideas what is going on? is this skill not working properly?

I've now heard this skill can do MUCH more damage than 50k.
Apparently (if correct) the ranged person must be at least 22 + distance away to activate the synergy. This would explain why it never seems to synergize in dungeons and rarely in trials.
Still, with this amount of damage, you would think 1. the tooltip could be more specific and 2. it would be worth having a range person stay back far enough to frequently synergize. Afterall, there is always plenty of ranged players in every trial.
