does anyone else feel like this bomb is just basically useless? i realize that all the haze bombs (or former variants, shiv, agni, etc) all do minor status. however, it seems the minor stun is so much shorter than all the others. it only seems to last for around 1 second, or maybe slightly less. by the time u drop a bomb, switch to sword or gun they arent even stunned anymore. atleast minor fire/freeze seem to last 4-5 seconds :\

i think they should atleast upgrade this to moderate stun on 5* stagger storm, same as how 5* rigadoon gets moderate stun compared to minor on 4* and below

i have 4* right now, lvl8 and i have recipe for stagger, i really dont even wanna update it now after using 4* :X but i will anyways, its ctr vh

edit: i will say, the only slightly redeeming quality of this bomb is hearing the stun gong sound go off 20 times repeatedly when using it. bwong bwang bwong, its pretty hilarious

The stun seems to last about 4 seconds after the mist disappears. This is a very short duration which makes this bomb pretty unusable for solo play imo. The only thing worse than the janky stun animations are mobs that are going in and out of stun and switching between slow and regular speed attacks (or super fast attacks if the stun ends mid-animation)

It's short because you drop a stun, walk away, switch weapons and by the time you're ready to attack again the mist is about to go away. You dodge a couple attacks to admire how stun works and maybe attack one enemy and 3 seconds has elapsed which leaves you with 1 second of stun. Perfect for switching back to the haze to deploy again. To be fair, I haven't clocked it with a stop watch or frame counted but just counting off in my head after the mist goes away tells me it's about 4 seconds.

Anyway, it's too short. A lot. Venom Veiler now is officially the second worst (ex-)haze-line-bomb.
