I agree!!’ Ty bby

If plague is BM then why is a sin using Venom? Big poison damage in less duration?

Why barbs/smiter use Grief? Procs venom and -poison res?

A sin can hold down mindblast +traps and deal dmg over time and preventing players from attacking but cries about plague javelin being BM?

Nec sometimes need poison nova to fight ES sorcs also, good luck breaking a good ES sorc with just spears/spirits😭😭



At level 42 venom skill level, with just 75% res and 0 plr, a full duration venom does around 175 damage. And with the way Whirlwind works, being a fast hitting skill, you will only get slightly more than that 175 damage per WW sequence.

Plague can easily take someone down to 1hp, requires 0 aiming or name lock, and you can then just l8z over the moor until the opponent is drained to 1 and then pop off some GA/multi

The main problem with plague and poison nova is that they require near 0 skill to use, but do extreme damage.



So it’s difficult to find a balance that is both GM and doesn’t make the entire duel a Bui l8z fest for those 2 skills in particular.

I also dont understand why plague javelin and psn nova is negated to the point of uselessness.
Its almost a no-skill to avoid them, plr gear makes then terrible, a plague javelin can be outwitted by almost anyone, and surviving as a psn only, is basicly try not to get hit too much, before you hit with your terribly slow attack, that basicly makes any dueller rage-rush you as soon as they are poisoned, and you still have to outlive them and deal another hit to finish them off.
with enough frw you can walk away from a poison nova.
and yet you allow Rabies druids, who can kill you in 1 hit, whereas a psn nova or plague javelin can get you to 1 hp at most.
I'm not saying I'm right, but I honestly think this should be evaluated.
If your argument is that it require almost no skill to use, dosent traps, foh, hydra, thunderstorm, shadow warrior, shadow master, venom, holy shield, any pala aura go under the same category ? Dosent require good playerskills to benefit from.
hell I'd argue that if you dont have a strat down when you use plague javelins, you more or less never hit anyone, because its so damn slow to activate. the trailing psn cant even psn my opponent, only the cloud at the end.

Auradin is banned, always has been. I think if you were to use double dream and max synergies that would constitute an auradin build even if you intend to zeal, but may need some backup on that if others know
