New and Improved Lotus Poison: What’s the point?

Lotus Poison: Increased the weakness duration to 4 seconds, but it can only apply once every 20 seconds per target.

The only skill that applies [weakness] after the update is our underwater sneak attack with spear.

Whoop-di-dooo!!!

No trait that grants us access to weakness either.

So what’s the point? O.o?

I want my old Skale Venom back, thank you.

EDIT:
poison → weakness

http://sirvincentiii.com ~ In the beginning…there was Tarnished Coast…
Full set of 5 unique skills for both dual-wield weapon sets: P/P and D/D – Make it happen
PvE – DD/CS/AC – If that didn’t work, roll a Reaper or Revenant.

i don’t really understand the huge nerf on lotus poison. they could’ve nerfed it to 2s duration even and it would still be better than this.

All is vain.

They buffed weakness.
Then they said “Ruh Roh Raggy, Choking Gas Might be too strong!”
So Dagger mainhand paid the price.
kittening morons.
Also yeah, kittening over an already kittenty venom was also a brilliant choice.

If you’re a thief and haven’t
pre-ordered HOT at this point,
save yourself the money and don’t bother.
