So I've been playing around with Naptha for the past week or so after a discussion myself and a few other HLC barbs had regarding its viability in PvP, and I've found that on top of it doing absurd amounts of damage(anyone who has hunted Shalswars knows how devastating it is), with 1218 LT there seems to be pretty much no one I can't hit with it, which is a huge problem considering how powerful it is and how fast it can be chained off. Had planned on going to Theren and getting some live test results Thursday night( ;-) ), but didn't get the chance.
Assuming it lands, it's a lose/lose for the person who gets hit - stop drop and roll is guaranteed death from the person attacking, and whose to say they can't just throw more naptha while doing that? Not trying to put it out is also a death sentence, it takes 4-5 pulses to kill. If you get hit with a stun, you probably wouldn't be able to react until its too late(past 2 pulses is the point of no return).
IMO, a downtweak on the damage/vitality would be the best course of action. If it's going to work like a DoT, let it work like one. The critical hit/miss rate alone makes it OP, you can just spam Naptha until the person get a critical block failure and it lands. Around the at-level mark, it's one of the most powerful attacks in the game currently.
Thanks.
