While levelling up, I never bothered with the attribute debuff poisons. Has anyone else found them useful?
If a mob debuffed my strength by 80, it would have a small effect on my damage output. If they debuffed my attack speed or piercing/slashing, I'd hit less often, and it would reduce my damage more. And being stifled/stunned would drastically affect me. It's the same story with debuffing agility, intelligence or wisdom; there's another way to debuff that would have a much greater impact.
Assuming debuffs affect mobs in the same way they effect us, what's the point with bothering with the attribute debuffs?
The only exception I can think of is a long-duration stamina debuff on a mob with enormous numbers of hit points.
...
But then again, maybe debuffs on mobs aren't the same as on us. Anyone know?
