...striking scorpions was up there at the very top. Oh they did not kill you with their ambush power attack, thats ok turn around and try and fight back, you are dead before your d-bash from poison. Absolutley braindead thought process on that one, geniuses.
SS got poison now? Uhm... why. I know they are famous for their stealth combat, but not for poisoning the enemy.
I would have it so that poisoning your weapon makes it weaker by default, but every hit whether countered or not, posions. - base damage is reduced by a large chunk - A fast attack gives a large chunk of poison - A power attack gives small amoubt of poison - A clang gives a sliver of poison.
If poison was handled better in the game it would be okay and also if they already didn't hit so hard. But ya, with server delays as they are (I'm assuming its still bad on the test server) the build up debuffs like poison, fire, melta are cancer. You're dead before you even know its built up too fast on you. Dumb. :| Why is it not just a slow tick like in all other games? Tired of having to sit there and channel Stream of Corruption too for 5 years. But that's for another thread....
Nurgle told me personally he was going to take a big fat shit in Nathans coffee if Chaos do not get the same treatment. True Story.
