Does anyone know exactly how the Scorpion Harness works? In the description it says that it periodically removes poison but I got hit by one of the cockroach queens and still intact caught a stack of poison and took damage from it. I guess I was expecting to not get poison damage.
And also I notice Sets Tongue no longer removes poison either but now has a Plundering effect like Mithras Justice which I assume means that removes buffs upon contact?
Yeah, the Cleansing items need a buff. Bad. Plus… well, most of us believe that Feroxic Daggers need a nerf, but that’s a discussion for another thread
-Shakes fist at the sky- DAMN YOU SIPTAH AND YOUR PAY TO WIN BS!!!
But really, with the advent of server transfers, Siptah stuff just grossly overpowers the Exiled Lands. This simple issue as an example: Exiled Lands has Cleansing weapons and armor that take up inventory slots. Siptah has a slotless sigil that not only does the same thing, but does it better. Pay to Win.
They require no skill at all, simply spam the light attacks button, each hit piles on 2,stacks of poison (so they kill faster than pretty much any other weapon in the game and they use very little stam so you could theoretically spam your way halfway across the map. They are legit op and just like they needed to nerf the armor pen on the Yog’s Touch they need to nerf the poison damage from the daggers because you can get stun locked by the first hit so you don’t even get an opportunity to use an antidote. Simply dead fast by happy dagger spamming noob who thinks he’s good until you catch him without his daggers.
The only use I have found for Scorpion Harness is I keep it in a chest full of booze. I take 5 drinks to get the str buff, put the harness on to cleanse alcohol poisoning, then put it back in the chest and head out hunting.
So basically the Harpy daggers are OP for the same reason that Feroxic Daggers are OP and why venom infused daggers make people uncomfortable. Gotcha. Yeesh these things are nasty. And with server transfers bringing these horrors to the exiled lands? Pay to win indeed
Venom infused daggers were never that bad because they had relatively very low damage, historically in the exile lands there was always a trade off, a cost, reaper poison on daggers for instance.
siptah has a balance is out the window attitude not even an attempt to balance it really is unfixable and now its plaguing the exile lands, siptah gear doubles your attributes and damage output, Exile lands just simply can’t compete, lifeblood spear and yogs touch looks tepid now by comparison.
