Poison Creeper

Quote: Um, in fact I am just sharing some new finding on Poison Creeper and asking for comments or more inputs.

You may want to mention the fact the the Creeper(along with the other vines) is only vulnerable to melee attacks. All ranged attacks(such as Diablo's LBOD, and nova) pass over without damaging it. This makes it a decent distraction for ranged monsters, and allows it to actually kill act bosses(given enough time).

A good tip to aim the vine at a monster is to recast it right on top of something. If cast next to a monster, it will immediatley attack, leaving the poison mat right where you want it(like a doorway in act2, or on top of a leader).

As for it's unusual damage, my experience leads me to believe that poison creeper's damage is completely mistated. My best guess is that it does the listed damage *every second*, not over the course of 4 seconds. It seems like it was doing 4 times the listed value in the same amount of time when I used it. this needs to be tested under controlled circumstances though...

(I played a druid who used poison creeper exclusively for offense all through normal. Unfortunately, he died on an unlucky Baal run. He was able to solo diablo, baal and the ancients using only poison creeper.)
