Topic. And I don't mean "Is it end game viable" or "Does it have a place in your rotation for your highest parse" - I just mean, how do you like it / it's functionality / it's visual / it's damage, etc?

In trials minor vuln is applied by healers or tanks running wall of elements. And as far as damage goes they nerfed the dots so unless it had a different 2nd effect it wont be on any optimal rotations I believe.
As for pvp side of things if there werent so many buffs on the bar already then maybe
