With the new 1 curse per mob system, I can't imagine any reason for any Ranger build to use this over the other Dex curses, Temporal Chains or Vulnerability. Other than the ability to obtain the skill gems you want for a build is kind of random, so you might be "stuck" with this one until you find a good curse.
If you use Poison Arrow for your primary attack, then TC gives a snare + increased dot duration. The snare is more reliable control than the 15% knock back. If I just want dps, then 25% phys + 40% on the dot with vulnerability. The other curses even synergize better in parties. I really wish the quest rewards were a little smarter in handing out skill gems. My ranger gets flicker strike and dual strike offered along with Projectile Weakness?? Why not offer the 3 dex curses? |

" I agree with this completely |

" Yup -- at least when curses stacked, Projectile Weakness could be a somewhat useful tertiary curse, but now why would I ever want to overwrite Temporal Chains with Projectile Weakness (especially since monster-attributes like Evasion or Elemental Resistance seem to have almost no practical effect)? |

In 0.9.5, it increases projectile damage. We'll see how that plays out!

My wand witch is using this over critical/elemental weakness primarily for the ~50% pierce chance.
Is the 25% extra projectile damage multiplied on top of total damage, or just additive with passives/skills that increase damage? |

" Because the wording is "25% more damage from projectiles" as opposed to "25% increased damage from projectiles", my guess would be that it is multiplied. My personal experience with the curse supports that theory. It also increases somewhat as the gem levels. Urist McDwarfy has been happy lately. He admired an exceptional ARPG recently. He took joy in slaughter lately. He has been attacked by the dead recently.
