I like the Acid Spray buff. It rewards a skilled player and lets them repeatedly apply Acid Spray if they can hit it consistently without just making it a straight-up buff.
Nearly doubling Noxious Cloud's damage is a bad idea because it's going to empower bio dashdrag cloud builds like Niffty's, and we saw how powerful she was.
Buffing Styx's damage is a mistake because suddenly Styx is dealing (for a typical 300 power poison mage) 1500 damage per tick without crits rather than about 900. It's going to make fighting Styx as a melee even more difficult - just remove the self-confuse if you want to buff it, or buff it by .5 damage.
Smog spell damage seems a little high given you can combo it with Spores to shred someone's HP and get yourself into combo position. I can understand buffing it, but to 3.5 or 4 seems better.
RE: Niffty her build was more than just poison, Maid perfect that build and not everybody will or is able to use it that well.
Let’s see first how well poison preform now before complaining about it. It hasn’t even being in yet to say it’s op.
That being said, it might be, but it’s preferable to wait.
