I'd like Venom Dust to have an increased duration during WoE, just like Traps last 4 times longer there.
Poison skills are already at the verge of usefulness (except EDP) so this might help a bit for that skill to become a tiny bit more popular and make WoE a bit more interesting aswell. (i.e. actually having to use slow poison/detoxify/green herbs if not 100 vit char)

It should last just as long as other traps (Maybe 5 times as long instead of 4 because when traps run out Hunters can pick them up...Sins loose a red gem) since it is technically a trap that you can set it near entrance portals and the Emperium.

Traps get sprug once. The dust will poison as many people as walk through it.

Yeah, that is true. Maybe just make them last at least almost as long or just as long. It still only lasts a few seconds though and costs a red gem, which has to be bought from merchants or farmed instead of bought at a tool shop. Its pretty much a status effect causing trap that lasts 50 secs, which is the same as ankle snare and most hunter traps outside of WoE castles. Might give pre trans assassins something to do in WoE while defending or waiting to break the Emperium at the last minutes and want to be a little more useful by helping out the rest of their guildmates. Poison is pretty useful against most casting classes that don't have that 100 VIT and need the precious SP to stay alive.

It lasts 60 seconds, and every person that walks through gets poisoned. That's really not a bad deal, when you once again consider that hunter traps get sprung once and they're spent.

Edit: Red Gems also drop frequently, and player merchants tend to sell them for about 600z a piece. Think about how much money knights spend on white potions in WOE,or how much it costs alchemists to use acid bottles or fire bottles..

Yes, WOE is expensive. Your class isn't the only class that pays a lot for WOE. I'd like WOE to continue to be a zenny sink.
