Elemental Focus Effects

With the implementation of Ikisith, we have great new focuses to balance and work around to make your character better, but it seems that poison focuses were under itemized or overlooked.
Elemental focues range from having just 2 items for poison, to 5 for cold and disease, 6 for magic,and 8 for fire. I know not every item has been accounted for, with some mobs only being killed a few times (Blazewind) and some content still left to be killed (Balls Deep Sanctum), anyways what i am trying to say is could a few more poison focuses be implemented for easier gear decisions and optimization.

To my knowledge a whole raid zone in ikisith remains largely untouched. I'd entirely hold my breath till that one's loot has been seen.
 
If I was trolling, I would. But given that temple of elael loot is largely unknown still, I don't think a thread like this is warranted quite yet.
 
first boss is but no one knows whats after it could be like yclist, first boss is a joke the first trash pull is harder, but then PE isn't nearly as much of a joke

The first boss of Temple of Elael is tier 9, if it is similar to Yclist, which is probably not true, then it would span to tier 11. Regardless of this being true or not, that still means that Shaman would not receive a poison focus upgrade from either Abyss boots/mystery-Nwaij-troll-item for well over 1.5 years of near constant progression (getting from entry tier 11 to tier 13 is no easy feat). And Necromancers would have 3 options instead of 2 (the third being the extremely rare Saitha Necromancer only scythe).

All that is being asked is if this is something that was considered in current tier 12-13 itemization, and if not, if it would warrant being looked into.

Also, Bleached Ringlet -- from reanimated priest in spires... it's a fight that could use a small little added carrot of incentive, I think, because it seem a bit more difficult than the others in the area, and it's in the right tier range for such an effect.

Edit -- I stand corrected, that's from perfected bone golem -- so it's a bit less of a good idea. Oh well.
 
Adding a poison focus to Saitha mask would only work if it was also made Shaman usable (and for necros that would be 2 off of the same mob -- although Scythe barely exists).

I always thought that the Shaman mask from Nylastra'Zara was quite underwhelming for a Shaman considering its rarity.. or maybe Scales of the Fallen from 4.3 (already has AE8 though).
 
Bleached ringlet is a good choice
Saitha mask doesnt have shm on it and there are 2 other masks on or near tier
Voidstep is also a good choice
I rather have it on scales then voidstep but there are only two choices for AE8 atm
Clarav would also be cool but i remember hearing something that no focus 8s would be on anything in IS other than Taeshlin 2.0 and higher

Cella is also another option but it would only benefit shm and its already super good so i doubt it would be added here

or what about the shm bracer from Spires mana con is already on several other items but i guess this goes against the grain because all the priest/int bracers have mana con

Rujik Drum is also a good choice it has both classes

4.3 Scales
Rujik Drum
NZ Mask (The robe has cold7)

Those are the best options I can think of.

I consider Bleached Ringlet/Perfected Bone Golem to be T11 but maybe that's wrong.
