    Yay
    now If they would add it to aoe as well to all targets at the range I mean. So that way it wouldn’t be broken I can see it now cleave and noxious breath. Maybe acid spray if your bow user.

    Yay
    The change seems good to me.

    1. I hated vma dagger rotation. It now gets easier to use, what I like very much. It may be lowering the ceiling, but I guess it's a good thing.
    2. Because of diminishing returns I wonder how big the nerf will be in actual numbers. Can anyone show how much a Poison Injection or Rending Slashes does on PTS vs. Live, with and without vma daggers?

    However, in my opinion vma daggers should be stronger than let's say Velidreth or at least Stormfist. So if vma daggers results in a dps loss now, the buff to weapon damage should be adjusted accordingly.

    The nerf can barely even be classified as a nerf.

    Stamcros breaking 105k and stamsorcs over 100k. It's just easier and a less rigid rotation now. Anyone acting like this is a serious nerf damage hasn't tested or is being disingenuous.

    The complaints about the rotation being easier are valid though...it's definitely more forgiving and getting close to 100% dot uptime is not difficult whereas before it was annoying having to barswap with flurry
