66 damage for the first 1 second. Meaning you deal as much extra damage in the first second as if you had 95-ish extra AP (if we count with a spell that has a 0.7 ratio which is pretty normal) The lower the ratio the higher AP amount this corresponds to. For example if we consider a spell with a 0.3 ratio the burn damage equals to what you would get with 222 AP... Yes of course the damage goes down as teh HP goes down... then what? AT 50% hp it still deals a lot of damage... And this is only the damage from teh FIRST second...

As a summary: even with your numbers this is a huge damage buff which goes even higher if the target has more HP - on average it corresponds to about 100 extra AP (more if you count with a lower ratio spell). Even if you factor in Magic resist the nubers stand as it will lower your damage from AP too so the correspondence doesn't change. For burst DFG is better but for any type of sustained damage like poisons this item deals a truckload of damage....
