Question about poisons.

[Goldenblade]

<DIV>I am currently running both Mordant Goo and Mordant Strike, at the same time.  My questions are:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1.  Since both poisons are technically in effect, do both of them go off at the same time?  Or does each one have to roll the 5% chance to go off.</DIV> <DIV>2.  How many poisons can you have running at the same time?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Or is this a bug =)</DIV>

I haven't tested this myself but have heard from several other poison using scouts that the only one that will proc is the first on your listed buffs. Yes they do appear to stack, but according to others they in reality do not give you two poisons procs. <div></div>

The last one you have casted on yourself, is the one that will be procing. Jerm Hasyourback<Elysium> 50 Brignand/50 Alchemist Crushbone <div></div>

Thanks for the info, this saves me the trouble of keeping more than 1 poison going.

What you may want to do is use one *damage* poison and one *debuff* poison at the same time.Debuff poisons have 80 charges, and a 20% chance to proc every 3 sec (approx). They do nice things like lower the poison resist of a mob, or other effects. They are only made by players (alchemy), so you'll have to search the broker. There's a stickied thread in the Scout forum that may list effects and poison names.

I believe that this info is not entirely correct.  I keep a minimum of two poisons going at any one time...up to a max of five.  In my damage window I can see ...your poison does 96 points worth of damage and your poison does 65 points of damage... up to 5 at a time.  This isn't just the 6 sec proc because they all fire one after another.  I don't know if this is a bug or not but at this time it does work.  I normally use a combination of my favorite player made and NPC vendor purchased poisons.  If I am soloing then I use a combination of debufs and poisons and I can see all their messages in my damage chat. <div></div>

I have never seen two poisons proc at the same time when stacked. If they have, I never saw the proc go by. I have since begun to stack a debuff with a poison to maximize. If you had 5 go at once when stacking them, I'm shocked. Myabe there was some code that allowed that use but not 2? If it works, nice catch.
