A couple of Rogue like things

[Crynel]

ill start of with this:

since the new trap system is in place and mostly bug free by now. i was wondering if this trap could be fixxed and be useable. currantly it casts and does nothing at all. im not sure what the effect should be but getting it working would be a start.

secondly:

This is a reward from a Gruplok quest that i feel should be upgraded a bit. i was thinking along the lines of raising the poison's level to its second or possibly third stage (leech poison or greater leech poison). As it stands i find it hardly worth using since it is a 10pt lifetap that goes off occasionally at best and i usually have better things to put in my precious buffslots over it since it is semi lackluster.

thoughts and constructive critisizm welcome.

whole-heartedly /agree

The highest tier of that poison is a 30 pt base lifetap, even the melwin's idol of joy werefrog lifetap is 75 base...having unlimited charges is nice, just like carrying around a Threadbare Emblazoned Cloak is nice for when you don't have raego, there are just better things to use your buff slots for.

Would like to see it at least bumped up to Greater Leech Venom, or if you really wanna go crazy and do something awesome, make the quest reward the vial, and make it so you have to "imbue" it or something. Make it a one-time deal, no changing your mind, and at the cost of extra components or something, let us pick our favorite poison to put in thar.

As for the stasis trap, I don't have many ideas, with the revamp on traps, it would be a simple matter of adding a flag to your dialogue options, but I hate to see a good clickable go to waste...maybe make it the next step up for the Trap Kit?

IIRC, the quest you get the stasis trap from provides a 0.5 sec cast invis clicky to everyone else, there are buyable/looted invis clickies, this one's just faster. I think it would be in line for this to become the next faster trap (2.0 sec might be pushing it), since as of now we have our store-bought, then our thurgadin quest, which is a bit faster.

I've heard lots of hints at a faster trap clicky hiding amond the geckos somewhere, but something in-between (or better, since it IS the vah, and it IS a massive pain in the ass) should be appropriate.

What ever came of the new poison system where you equipped it in the ammo slot and gained free procs without the nasty side effect of them eating a buffslot, if that was the case I would say there was atleast some value to that thing but as it currently is im trying to find that smiley where it barfs out other smilies.

i had forgotten this in my original post but here goes:
could the arsenic line of poisons (arsenic and Concentrated Arsenic) be made not to overwrite itself?
Haemophelia which is almost the exact same poison (does less damage than arsenic poisons but operates the same) does not overwrite itself allowing it to tick to full damage.
As it stands, arsenic poisons wont do so unless you click off the poison buff after landing it to prevent overwriting.
