Bring back Viper Noxious Gash

[Eikthyr]

It was good, it made us think about when to use dreadwinder instead of just pressing it on cd. Unlike reaper you can't refresh it while in a combo if you don't have dreadwinder, which was it's originality and frankly made it better.
And the most annoying part Is that it was easy to keep it up by just pressing your button on cd, not the absolute best damage wise but still not that big a loss.
The job was already easy, there was some simple complexity that made it more engaging but apparently fun is too dangerous for Square Enix.

And let's not talk how stupid it is to remove the debuff from VIPER the job named after a VENOMOUS snake while the job icon is the two teeth VIPER use to inject VENOM.

Actually you really didn't need to think when using dreadwinder or vicewinder skill to apply noxious gnash to enemies when dread fangs and dread maw did apply noxious gnash too.

But yeah removing noxious gnash in patch 7.05 is stupid and the new honed steel effect is pointless when all it does is increase potency of steel fangs and steel maw.

I honestly don't even notice its absence.

It could have been a lot worse than what we got. If SE really had to change something I am glad it's this instead of anything else.

The job effectively plays the same as it did before. Watching people in Balance theorycraft a triple reawaken set up has been fun for the morning at least.

Genuinely, how?

We went from occasionally starting a combo string with the secondary opener to starting every other combo with it. It is undeniably noticeable. You can say you don't mind it, you can even prefer it. But claiming you don't notice anything either makes you a liar or someone who doesn't even read their abilities.

Yes. Defanging the snake is not great fantasy for me. Also made the job feel dull and generic.

Bring black plunge!
