From my own reading.....this is what I get out of it:
- The Thorn will do less Damage with poison.....[b]HOWEVER[/b] will stack with poison damage....
To me that sounds like a 3 shot to the body to me since [b]ALL[/b] 3 shots will stack (Think about it....from the 1st shot to the 3rd shot....they will lose around 25% health for first round....then 5% for poison....25% for second shot.....then 10% for [b]2[/b] poison...and so on)
-
The effective results, as I understand, will be that the Thorn retains its potency in PvE, and may even get a bit more (up close anyway) with the stacking poison. However, its PvP effectiveness will be reduced. You will still be able to own the enemy with it, but not so much your fellow Guardians.
