Guild Wars 2

Hey I thought about an improvement on venom.
How about we make venom as class mechanic skills.
So we can turn ONE venom on or off to have a pasiv useage like “Devourer Venom” has a 10% chance to Immobilize your enemy on hit.
We could change the passiv venom out of fight.
And if we are infight we can use them the normal way.
Maybe the venoms need to be nerfed a bit but hey thats balancing and not part of my sugestion.

So venoms would feel like they should… atm they are just wierd skill ( without devourer ) which barely someone uses.

ps: i m in for discusions about this one. But if someone starts kittenfighting or starting to troll. I will just abadon this topic.

Start using venom share, honestly, as an ex tanky support (knight/cavalier gear) sword/dagger thief I can say that the venoms are definitely not just “wierd skills”. I currently main an asuran engineer now though as it is my commander.

Try using leeching venoms with venom share, the leeching venoms applies to your team mates also.
use shadow refuge, skale venom, spider venom, basilisk venom

When using this tecnique solo, i swapped out skale venom for devourers and swapped basilisk for thieves guild.

The “true damage” from the life steal on venoms will destroy an opponent as you stack on them and the life steal will keep you alive.

This was before the recent increas to the range on venemous aura (and the visual radius), and skale venom got buffed also.

When running with my brother who was dagger/dagger thief, we could perma stealth and instant kill any enemy whilst they turned to stone. We both used pistol/pistol as secondary weapons and we caused more carnage than i can even explain.

Also, we occassionally took thieves guild each, swapping my shadow refuge out for an extra poison and instead relying on his, this essentially made us an 6 man mini-zerg.

alright looks like there are some diferent gameplay views. In spvp mostly no one uses poison builds, pve is the same. But in wvw there is a use for it. ^^

Because i mainly play pve / spvp I suggested it like this.
