Venom Arrow and New interrupts

So with Poison Injection being the most used morph for Pve and Pvp can we get something else with venom arrow?

You indirectly nerfed the under used morph of a skill and now we don’t get the effects of this skill if they are CC immune.

I would suggest to always apply the poison status effect to the target.

Anyone else use this morph like me and would like to have it adjusted for these changes?

    That status effect is already always applies on the disease morph of snipe. I disagree because thats basicly the only ranged interrupt skill for stam.

    Increase direct damage up to 300% at 25% hp when hitting target under 50% hp while still keeping interrupt :P

    That can only interrupt 1 every 7 seconds now. Unless resurrection.

    So Essentially it got nerfed by A lot. But the most used morph didn’t get changed. So now we have another skill that wasn’t really used getting worse.

    I guess everyone in the game will just use Poison Injection now.

    What would be interesting is a reverse-PI, i.e. "deals up to 260% extra damage over time on targets above 50%."

    It's definitely a big nerf to the venom arrow morph. I imagine nothing will be changed with it though. ZoS has proven for a long time that they are perfectly fine with certain ability morphs being completely useless.

    I do t think it should remove the interruption. It just kinda needs something now that the main purpose of this morph just took a huge hit.

    It was already the “unused” morph. Now I don’t think I’ll run it again either. Just no point when Poison Injection is as strong as it is.

    Well, if it's going to keep the interrupt and just get a new effect on top, I'd say have it grant something like Minor Fracture.

    That wouldn’t be a terrible idea. They have essentially gutted this move but I can’t test because I’m console. If I can only interrupt 1/7 seconds then please buff.

    Any way we could get a buff to this move. Definitely the morph nobody uses and it just got severely nerfed.

    Would love for Venom Arrow to be a viable spammable. Although we would lose our only execute function to make use of it. It certainly is very lacking in comparison to Poison Injection.

    Still need something for this morph to consider slotting in almost every situation.

    Any this underused morph gets passed over again with this update.

    The benefit to this morph was interrupting abilities.

    No reason to use this over poison injection IMO

    Interesting, yes, but not in a good way.

    EDIT: There might be some room in PvP for a proc that kicks off if the target player has more than 30k health when you hit them, to burn down some serious health stacking. I'm not sure it's needed, but that could be legitimately interesting.

    You could also have some, potentially, interesting, first hit effects for PvE. Like, applying a taunt on first hit, or giving the party a buff if you taunt an enemy at +95% health. But, dealing execute damage to an undamaged foe would be a mess.

    Still find this to be an issue. There is no reason to choose this over poison injection in PvP or pve

    How about this:

    This morph deals approximately 20% more direct damage than Poison Injection and also increases the damage over time component by 300% if an enemy is successfully interrupted.

    To me it doesn’t matter what the buff is exactly. I used to love this move and used it regularly. The only time I can actually see it being useful it to stop resurrects from range. Other than that you will almost never interrupt someone. Maybe the new Jesus beam spammers but that’s it

    with the new dungeons and mechanics requiring it all the time, interrupting should not be locked behind a morph that requires dps to gimp themselves out of their maximum dps potential.

    mag dps don't like to spec crushing shock but don't have a choice really, same with venom arrow for stam users.

    Please rework interrupting to be part of some base skill, not morph selection. It be should be accessible to any class or race to be slotted immediately when necessary in fights that require it. You could consider adding the interrupt effect to an existing base skill that is not essential for dps like psijic accelerate or something but everyone should be able to slot it easy for the new dungeons

    Maybe Venom Arrow should root instead of interrupt? Like Crippling Grasp?

    Pretty sure Asylum bow only buffs direct damage portion. The suggestion was to increase the DoT damage.
