I will have to disagree with you. You have not taken into account a more complex situation. There are cases where this mod is a godsent. For example, I recently rolled a riven for Plague Kripath (Slash, crit damage, attack speed, with - 74% status duration). -74% is a killer for this otherwise awesome riven, as your Viral from plague kripath lasts only 1.5 sec, your slashes last less than 2 seconds, making this great weapon a piece of crap. With no status effects, you also miss out on the huge damage multiplier from Condition Overload. This mod fixes all that. Altough it does you a mod slot, it's well worth it in this situation, where you got a great riven for a great weapon. No other mod you could put in its place to make the weapon stronger.
