I support 100% of this thread, yes please I've played my Kensei and felt the same exact way. Lingering damage is such a rare status and generally sounds really cool for Kensei to do this, so in case say, someone kites you. Having struck them is still a reward so you can close in while they still take damage.
(only stupid thing with this I can see is Kensei + Ghost stacking up claret call like no tomorrow thanks to lingering damage.)
