It has issues with hit detection.

Because it's poop outside of the 16.8m teleport (Which is useful enough to warrant taking it to rank 4).

It never seemed to do anything whenever I used it. I do plan on speccing into it again at some point to give it another try.

Broken off host - There are ways of getting around it, but it's still a massive reduction in flexibility (hurr).

Iffy hit detection - can't hit anything past ~7m despite range increases

No-one likes direct DoT that doesn't prime for combos, not even me

Most of the stuff you can teleport through can be done with a backwards dodge

I try to like it and usually put 6 ranks in my builds. It does decent damage and detonates consecutive combos somewhat quickly, but Biotic Charge in general is easily better than Poison Strike + Biotic Focus.

I've put 4 points in it. It's very clunky in terms of detonating my FE, so I stopped using incendiary ammo with this kit.

I've never used it. I play a lot with the cabal, but I play it as a soldier and not like a vanguard.

If you guys want to try it out what I liked to do was do it on Firebase White, doesn't matter what enemy, and lure the enemy to the stairs in the hallway, Dodge left or right through the wall and the poison strike Straight through the Hallway to the other hall and repeat... its fun... easy kills and its easy to weaken boss level enemies before they get to you.

Plus, it does work through guardians shields.

She is pretty much a soldier with biotic powers. 

Also if you spec into Biotic Focus with the Shielding at R6 with a light et still powerful weapon, Harrier/M7 Lancer, you can spm it and pretty much be unstoppable.

I only ever use Poison Strike for teleporting, I spec 5 points into it (for range and recharge speed) and I love it, largely because of her teleporting the Cabal is one of my top three favorite characters in this game (also because Biotic Focus doesn't interrupt the PPR's beam, one of my favorite guns, and the AR weight reduction passives let me use it and still have a fast recharge on my powers).

^ This- poison strike is the power for those who want mobility. it has insane range when compared to the distances on some of the maps.

it has no hit detection issues. It is a 6m attack with a radius. Think Smash. The rest of the teleport is not an attack :(

For me because the rank 6 evo for all 4 of the other tracks are better than any points in PS. The Cabal already has a teleporting heavy melee, what is the point of PS?

And having anything I happened to hit now behind me, doesn't feel like a smart idea.

The Cabal is a highly durable weapons expert with a devastating melee attack, teleportation and crowd control on a grenade power. I find Poison Strike to be irrelevant, there is always something else I can do in any situation that is better than PS.
