Fix Maelstrom Cruel Flurry

The current Dual Wield/Cruel Flurry for Maelstrom weapons are consuming Poisoned status effect, Twin Blade and Blunt Axe Bleed, and is being consumed by Poison Injection however, the Cruel Flurry bonus is not applying to it (at least on Xbox One).

Are there any foreseeable fixes to have it at least working on Poison Injection and not consuming Poisoned status DoT? Though the Twin Blade and Blunt Axe Bleed is a chance, I can see it being useful and can be avoided by simply not having an Cruel Flurry Axe equipped.

Known abilities/procs that consume Cruel Flurry:
  • Poisoned status effect
  • Twin Blade and Blunt Bleed (Axe)
  • Poison Injection not enhanced by Cruel Flurry, but consumes it
  • Viper's Sting (DoT proc) not enhanced by Cruel Flurry, but consumes it

    yes/agree.

    It is also weird that it only really applies to so few skills (Blood Craze). Imho they should change it so that after using Blood Craze using Flurry on that target deals increased damage, while Blood Craze DOT is running, (basically reversing the requirements and effect, reason beeing the dot on blood craze is not really good no matter how much weapon damage you get, also you use Flurry more than once every 9 seconds).

    edit: to clarify, this means every Flurry is boosted as long as the Blood Craze DOT is running on the target

    Stop the grind! Get rid of stupid events and daily-quest gallore. Get rid of "have a chance of 1 in a million to get a piece of 1 in 30 to get a stupid motif or pet... wtf..."
    And at this point just remove all classes and have everyone choose their set of skills. then balance accordingly to skills always used vs. skills never used.

    Wow, did not even know that. I'll make a list of known abilities/procs that are consumed.

    I don't think they can fix it honestly, or don't want to. As a Dot Stam Sorc for over 2-years poison Inject was my breadnbutter on my masters bow. And with 260% more for dam after 50% hp, constantly refreshing with the cruel flurry enchant was beautiful.

    Zos doesn't want to fix this, cruel flurry been nerfed so many damn times I feel or complained about from lol or wow esport failures. 3601k infused enchantments weapon dam to 2603k infused to a set base of 2003 having to have hold 2 items.

    But I tip my hat for the effort of this post. I appreciate your diligence.
