Toxikon needs to be 660 potency for it to have that functionality, and that would it just as effective as 2 casts of Dosis III, and thus you wouldn't be punished for wanting to use your barriers proactively.
Pretty much this. It's worthwhile in AoE situations, because Dyskrasia is 170 and Toxicon is 330 so it ends up being a DPS gain and it means on trash pulls your tank is getting shielded from incoming damage. So there's a dual benefit. From a game play perspective, it feels way better than Dyskrasia spamming.

There isn't much reason to translate this in single target situations and only works if you need to use that shield.

I think upping it to 660 or higher is the best option here or a single target equivalent of Toxicon that's 660 or higher. I'm less of a fan of it being an oGCD as it might start to feel too much like Energy Drain and I think it would feel less great. I can see how an oGCD would help flow...as I was one who suggested it be an oGCD before. It feels nice with something like Fan Dance on DNC, but doesn't with Energy Drain on SCH and I feel because it's breaking up a single button spam it'll feel more like the latter than the former.
