I am a rather new MCM/Rifleman. I made it about 2 weeks ago but haven't had much time to play since. I'm trying to figure out how to get the most of my MCM PvE. Right now for money I take 30k+ Janta/Mokk/Kunga missions on Dant. I find with my T21 I can cover/headshot3 one of them and even if they aggro it's usually only 1, thus I can take the lair out rather quickly. Most other Mobs with less than 50k HAM go down rather quickly if there are more than 2 or 3 people in a group even after the last patch. It just seems to me a waste toapplyinga poison on something that mayvery welldie before 1or 2 ticks when I can be blasting away at it.
I guess what I want to know is, do you save your poisons for only Elders, GDK, Gorax and such? Also what kind of a benefit are disease in PvE. I've read that BF affects disease ticks, is this the same for mobs?

I'm novice CM/novice riflemn, so my poisons/diseses help me out a bit since i can't take them out with the t21 quite that fast yet. But, in my experience anyway, mokk/janta/kunga aren't affected by diseases, so don't waste them.

with a good master, i.e., rifle, fencer, tk... you can kill them so fast it is a waste of poison to use it on jantas.
other more challenging oopnents, like night sisters, are a different story, especially with the ability to pull one with a single poison, and the ability to overcome resists. so really, it depends on the particulars. for the most part, poisons are not all that helpful in pve, excepting the high-resist mobs you mentioned

Try stacking Area B, Cs. and Single B, Cs.
You can stack a pretty sick tick. I can do 2600 atm

2600 is about right with the poisons you mentioned.
please note, that is every ten seconds or 260 DPS. Alot of stacking (and therefore resources) are being used when you do this. Against most mobs a 260 DPS is next to nothing, against high end mobs it's quite a bit. It's your choice to make.
