Is Expose Weakness supposed to get knocked off so easy?

Currently the Hunter T2 8/8 set bonus (Expose Weakness) is getting knocked off almost instantly due to it being in the same debuff priority as Deep Wounds (Lowest one)

I find it so weird to have a unique SET BONUS being knocked off by a 100% proc on crit warrior talent that dosnt even do alot of damage but is needed to get the impale talent which buffs their damage.


I have only been able to find 2 sources that might tell that this isnt blizzlike but none of them are 100% reliable:

http://www.wow-one.com/forum/topic/2156 ... ty-system/ Here Expose Weakness is in the medium priority category and all damaging debuffs are in the lowest priority which makes alot more sense than whats going on at nostalrius atm

https://vimeo.com/98669215 at around 0:51 the Expose Weakness (Looks exacly like the Hunter's Mark icon) debuff knocks off Deep Wounds and then continues to stay up for 7 seconds which is its full duration, though i cant tell for sure if this video is from retail since it was uploaded 1 year ago which makes this video non reliable

so... Is Expose Weakness really supposed to get knocked off so easy?, or does anyone have a reliable proof tell otherwise?

It sucks. Deal with it.
Yep, it is supposed to be like that since it has lower duration.
Get x6 t2 and x2 blue pvp set pieces with +2% extra crit chance and +20 agi extra bonus.

Oh and btw, have you noticed that it was the only proc for whole long fight with Patchwerk? Sometimes it procs the same way here on Nostalrius - it can hold 7sec if warriors don't get Deep Wound. But most of the time it persists for 1, mayby 2 seconds, then fade away because of deep woundz, corruptions and other crap.

Well, 8\8 t2 is still very good to fight adds and trash and it's very good in PvP, solo farm and etc.
Now let's calculate the gear stats on raid bosses:
The most useful pieces for replacement (imho) are r10 helmet + r8 chest (-7 agility, +2% crit chance compared to t2 pieces). Or choose boots (no wasted stats, +1 agility, +1% extra crit chance). Shoulders might be great after nerf -1% hit chance of t2 piece (so it will be like +6 agi, -1% hit, +2% crit chance)
