Evenom on other people's weapons @everyone

Just FYI again the devs have solved the non assassins having access to envenom weaps. Pretty sure you knew but just to be sure.

Anyway, lets put it this way. I'm 99% certain that there will be no intention ever for the Devs to change this to anything like what you're suggesting. What you're suggesting would be restricting a class from using a large part of its arsenal (they wouldnt do this). Lets say the 1% happens... for a class that only has access to 1 aggressive active RA what you're asking is hugely debilitating. Wait until all debuffs are applied. Purge. Win.

I made comparisons to point out the somewhat ridiculous nature of the request. You purge against a Champ, or a sorc, or any caster with insta debuffs, you get insta re-debuffed again if they're half way decent. All the re-use timers are suitably short (5sec re use for most insta debuffs, many of which are AOE debuffs). But you're not purging the debuffs.. you're purging the CC, at least I hope. If it was intended to prevent reapplication of poisons you'd get an immunity timer. Which you dont, for any debuffs in the game, period, including spammable disease from eldritch and shaman etc.

Immunities, limitations, timer restrictions etc are strictly limited to effects that make your character unable to function, like crowd control that can totally disable a character, or nearsight which can render a ranged class unable to perform its intended function. Poison however does not render you unable to do anything, except for the mez poison - and guess what, theres an immunity to that one.

In that same manner assassins are resitricted to being able to reapply poisons based on their swing speed and wether or not they hit the target. So putting a limitation on how many times this can be done, or how many weapons can be poisoned is a fools errand.

In an attempt to help you change your playstyle, i'll say it again, if you're purging debuffs vs an assassin you need to adjust your playstyle first and foremost as your approach is flawed. Just as i'd very much hope you wouldnt purge debuffs vs a champion, or a snare from a skald hoping for them not to slam /mezz you straight after.

Last i'll say on it. Good luck. Come see me in the frontiers to get your debuffs some time

Oh, and dont hold out hope for any changes of this nature.

Tani.
