Poison Arrow And Vine Arrow (Some Skills In General)?...

They are available pretty much from start, so they are starter skills.

Why are these skills so weak once you get to farm area in first act before manor?

I have a +2 bow with all the trimmings.
Both skills are maxed for my level.
Both have support gems linked to them.(I know some gems can take away damage, should still be balanced)
Wearing all rare gear's for my level.

Yet I find myself running in circles to kill mobs in an act 1 area with starter skills I believe should do MORE damage once they are leveled up.

A lot of skills still feel a little under powered, but yet you guys are nerfing skills that are over powered. Do you not think it is time to start fixing some of the under powered skills as well?

I love my poison/vine arrows or just poison in general in a game, if I'm forced to switch skills at a certain level because the mobs got harder or something, then what is the point of spending time leveling these skills from start?!
