Toxikon II isn't worth using in SGE's rotation because doing so requires that you cast SGE's GCD Shield Heal, which is a DPS loss on single target. Said shield will also have to break so that you can gain Addersting stack necessary for you to cast the spell. Really, the only time you need to use Toxikon is during mob pulls in dungeons, where it could potentially be a DPS gain and gaining Addersting stacks is much easier.

SE Tried to buff the spell throughout the entire expansion, but because SGE's GCD healing isn't worth doing most of the time, especially in dungeon bosses and raid fights, there's little to no reason to fish for the Addersting stacks that are needed to cast Toxikon.

WHM had this problem too at the start of 6.0 with Afflatus Misery being a DPS loss, but they fixed it on the 6.1 patch, making it damage neutral.
Then they’ll just have to redesign all the healer jobs. I don’t know know how they are going to do it with the old, current fight design and the upcoming new design.
