I've looked to see how long Virus and burn last at different Status Effect levels through the site but can't seem to find anything other than the Lv. 4 ones.
I think I have it that Burn Lv. 4 deals a certain amount of damage in ten seconds that adds up to about a fifth or a quarter of the maximum HP of the enemy/you and Virus does twice the amount of damage but spread over half a minute or more. I do not know about how long it takes for poison nor have I found anything about it either.
I want to knnow this because a friend of mine is in constant turmoil that his female Fortegunner has been made useless because of traps. Normal traps are SE 1 correct? G traps are SE 3 right? The rifle bullets can do a much better job with SE 4 am I right? They just take a little longer to inflict that's all. Surely the extra few ticks of damage from Virus or Burn 4 would balance it out right?
I also want to know this because of the SE 1, 2 and 3 that shotguns, Grenade Launchers, Laser cannons, handguns and other weapons that cause status effects. I'd do the testing myself now but my PS2 is giving me endless Disc Read Errors and I'm on an old iBook G4. I'm a Human Protranser who uses traps, G traps, Shotguns and bows to inflict status effects on things if that helps at all.
