There just doesn't seem to be a lot of chances to get cursed for the average player. I can really only think of faust users and that rare time you get hit by the ball of the phantom in the graveyard (which doesn't happen often). Think we can get some cursed-based greavers, gun puppies and maybe even floor traps? It could be a lovely way to introduce a pink-tier of monsters that aren't slimes and love puppies too!

Curse can make your life harder for 40 seconds, or be completely ignored with extra weapon slots and a little resistance.
I'd say it's underpowered against knights.

You're right,

You're right, curse isn't too much of a hindrance. Maybe it should stack with other status effects (like the monsters deliver curse/shock) and make those status effects last for the duration, maybe?
It would make for a wonderful knight BBQ.

Curse is our "rare" status that only appears under special circumstances like Phantoms and Fausts. Even the vials are somewhat rare to find. You would think with all the undead themed things flopping around there would be more curse with special support based enemies but instead we get Trojans and Flourishes on skeletons. Grimalkins are alright but easily outsmarted unlike boolit.
There are a lot of things they could use curse for, but simply giving it to enemies which normally have standard statuses would be the least creative and effort consuming. It would be like that universal gun and bomb damage buff.
