All i can say is a poison brandish would be a great addition to the game, it would add a little bit of spice to LD and helpful for non toxic enemies
Poison Brandish
How is it some spice to LD? Only shock and freeze add spice. And maybe stun.
Personally, I don't think it'd be a good idea. Think of all the arenas or shadow lairs or any level in general that has a healer. Poison is too strong to slap onto a Brandish. Other weapons are justified because they take time to apply poison (things like Biohazard and Dread Venom Striker). It also works on Venom Veiler as it becomes a support weapon instead of a primary damage tool. But with a single charge, brandish explosions will without a doubt poison an enemy, negating their healing, lowering their attack and defense, and will probably outclass other weapons.
In short, Poison is OP, Brandishes are OP. Poison + Brandish = imbalance. Imbalance is bad. Breaking the game is a no-no.
How about a poison troika line instead. This would potentially even out the bad damage it has, and give it a potential weapon slot, make it safer and more fun to use, etc.
parathesia, you know that a suda charge attack does around 800 damage, right? that doesn't seem low. it's just slow.
OP, no, we already have too many brandishes.
We don't need every status type for the Brandish.
