Love it. If only I had a thorn to relate experience to. :( Anyways, what about my submission? Check it out!

Read the changes more closely. It's not getting nerfed in PVE - it's actually getting a buff. The DOT is being reduced to 1/3 of what it was - but now it stacks. And it stacks up to 5 times at that. So if you tag a single enemy 5 times, the DOT will be 1.66 more potent. In PVP it's not likely you will hit the same target 5 times with a hand cannon before you either kill them from the straight up shots, they kill you first, or they flee the scene and the DOT clears. The reduction to 1/3 was to stop those instances where you would get a crit - inflict DOT - hit a body shot and as they fled they died from the DOT. Now 2 shots will only have 2/3 of the DOT damage if they are able to flee before the kill shot. The nerf / ninja buff is a balance for PVP and a buff for PVE to still keep it relevant.

:D I love it! It reminds me of Mark Hamil on the early star wars posters!
