Poison Trap from the Poison set

[Soulbent]

can you please reinstate the missing -regen from poison trap in the poison set

[kelika2]

I think that was only the Trap's's's Poison Trap

Poison trap from the Poison secondary holds targets in its AoE, drains their END, weakens their Recovery, and does toxic damage over time. It is not flagged to have a -Regen component.

Adding missing word "holds".

Like kelika2 said, Traps secondary has a poison trap that inflicts choke/vomit, weakens Regen, and slows Recharge, but does no damage. The two powers are not the same.

Correcting Recovery to Recharge.

Not a bug.

Poison Trap from the Poison Set used to have -1000% Regen on it at the beginning of the year

You're thinking of Traps>Poison Trap, not Poison>Poison Trap. Two different powers.

[Rudra]

There are 2 Poison Trap powers. The one in the Traps secondary has a choke/vomit component that has a chance to act as a brief (4.6 s) hold, -1000% Regen, and -30% Recharge. The one in the Poison secondary has a (8 s) hold, -1000% Recovery, -10% Endurance, and a minor damage Toxic element that ticks for up to 31 times. It can be easy to get confused since both powers have the same name, but Poison's poison trap always did damage instead of weakening Regen.

[Wavicle]

Maybe the devs ought to rename one of them.

 

Like, Poisonous Trap or something like that.

'Venom Trap' for the one in the Poison set, perhaps, to avoid the redundancy of 'poison' in the name of a power in the Poison set, and to reflect that it's the one with a damage component.

[Rudra]

Could just as easily argue that since it is the power in the poison set, that it should be called Poison Trap. Which would make the traps one better suited to be called gas trap. Regardless, that is for the devs to decide (and would be nice if they did to stop the ongoing confusion of Poison Trap powers) and not particularly relevant to the original post. Better to submit that under a request topic than argue over names in a bug post.
