Fettering poison: t8 pvp

[Urgol]

Lots of posts running 'zomg brigs are uber nerf them' on this board, but are the people SO blind? Brigands are absolutely ok compared to this piece of overpoweredness. Rangers and swashies are impossible to beat (rangers especially) with this <b>incureable 44% snare</b> which sticks to you in like the second moment of combat, well, not combat, but you being slayghtered by those guys and having no chance of fighting back..

I agree with the OP.  A little while ago I posted threads on this in the PvP and Warden forum also. The link is here: <a rel="nofollow" href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=404030" target="_blank">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...topic_id=404030</a><u>Here are the facts about "fettering poison" :</u><span style="color: #00ff66;">It is <b>Incurable </b>by cure spells or by cure pots.Persists even after the caster's deathDuration is roughly 39secondsSnare effect is roughly 59%Snare can not be broken</span><u>Combined with these facts:</u>Snare has no immunity timerPoisons can easily trigger over 10x/min with haste gearThe classes in question have several other snaring abilities"Freedom of action" potion provides only 10seconds of 46% immunity"Slippery feet" signet does not prevent snares.This is a quick BUG to fix imho.  Make it curable and not persist after the caster's death, and I will be happy.  Please let's not derail this thread to talk about OP classes, or whine that there are more important things to worry about.  <i>This is as far as I can tell, a constructive thread -- lets keep it like that.Edit: changed to 59% and added cannot be broken</i>

<p>T8 posions seem amazingly op. Im pretty sure that the fettering posion I've been hit by was 59%, but I might be wrong. Also, the str debuff is even worse for casters with low str. I have around 80 str, and I think it debuffs for 88, putting me at completely overburdened for over a minute.</p>

some classes can buff their poisons with aa lines.
