Instead of nerfing defile you BUFFED it????

Please do not let this go live as seen on here:

You are trying to balance truly broken sets by buffing other broken features of the game, such as defile, at this state of the game as it is, instead of nerfing the actual sets.

If you believe a set is really strong and offers no counterplay, fix the broken set. Healing has been a big issue since last patch, because it's got nerfed, because sustain's been nerfed etc etc, whilst defile stayed the same.If you actually pvp'ed you would have known that.

Now, people would have been expecting sth by ZOS, to balance the nerfed healing and the major defile and instead they get this.

It's funny to read the patch notes to see 'Troll king is really strong, that's why we are buffing defile even more to counter it'. Not everyone plays with troll king and certainly lots are gonna get affected by it.

In the same patch that bleeds aren't getting nerfed and are gonna be strong as ever, along with shields. This needs to be looked at

I respect your opinion as always. I think though that the problem is not major defile in itself but that it is attached to easily obtainable skills. Incapacitating Strike and the Warden's AOE (!) defile are just too strong in conjunction with what the rest of the skills do. Major defile should not be obtainable through skills or poisons but only through sets where balance can be achieved easier.
