Whats your thoughts??

Whole thread on http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1125093/page/8

The post is old, but there has been talk about remodelling puncture. Whats your PvP feedback about this skill?
The spot puncture is in now is the best it has ever been in terms of balance.
I think the Puncture is balanced, when combined with traps. But I would like to see double damage for half duration, when shooting with your bows.
I'm sure anyone using a bleed on hit bow would like double dmg also. Cmon man this can't be taken seriously. SMH. It's fine as is.

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Doesn't doubling the damage rate of puncture make it WAY better?

Please just leave puncture alone. Plz. PLZ!

Since Bleed does not stack, this would be an insane DPS buff wouldn't it?

It would sound better if it was the opposite, half the damage double the duration.
