View Full Version : Problems with Poisons
<div>Is anyone else having problems with their poisons dropping? If I just keep ONE poison type up, it usually stays up the full 12 hours. When I try to stack a second poison type, one or both drop. So, I can't have debuf and periodic damage (or whatever) up at same time. Is this correct? Did I miss a change/update? </div>

<div></div><p>Its been a long time since you've been able to stack 2 different types of damage poisons at the same time.</p><p> </p><p>You can have a Debuff and a Damage type at the same time. But, if you are trying to stach a high DD low Dot with a High Dot Low DD, one will over write the other. Pick one damage and one Debuff at a time. Personally i use Adeste's and Shissar at level 55, which are the High DD and Poison Debuff, and never have issues, other then Shissar only procs like 50 times per charge. </p>

<div></div><p>Well, stun poisons (like most special effect poisons AFAIK) have a limited proc duration - they don't proc 200 times like standard damage poisons. I know Phantasmic Visions rarely lasts longer than 2-3 encounters for me.</p><p>The poison problem I've noticed of late has more to do with overall duration than stacking (I think). It just seems like no matter what poisons I apply, I'm losing them WAY faster than I used to. It's really sad when I'm going through 2-3 *vials* of poison in a night instead of several applications. I gotta place another bulk order with my alchemist at this rate, and I just got like 20 vials a few weeks ago. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<div></div><div>OK On poisons... There are now 3 types of poisons Damage, Debuff, Special Effects... Damage poisons proc 200 times, Debuff proc 80 times and special effects proc 30 or 4 times each can very. The Phantasmic Visions procs 30 times and stuns for 4 secs and is unbreakable. The <span class="RecipeName">Cajoling Whispers </span>procs 4 times and is more of a mez posions. It stuns for 22sec but will drop if you do damage after the proc making it pretty much useless. </div><p>Message Edited by Blixx000 on <span class="date_text">01-27-2006</span><span class="time_text">03:08 PM</span></p>
I am a 34 Ranger now and have been stacking since level 20, it is just recently that I have noticed the non-damage poison drops much faster and way more often than the damage poison. When I die the non-damage poison almost always drops but the damage poison stays.Is that how it is supposed to work? In reading the descriptions of the poisons, it is not how I expect it to work.<div></div>
<div></div><div>If I try to stack a debuff or stun poison with a damage-type poison.... one or both of the poisons drop... POOF!....No poison up at all, zero uses, zero procs. Guess I'll /bug it for the fifth or sixth time now. Thanks for the help and info. I especially didn't realize the different poison types had different proc limits. Thanks all.</div>

<div></div>All three of the poison types Damage, Debuff, Special Effects will stack... The special effect poisons are the tricky ones some of the Special poisons are both damage and effect and take up both of the slots. Example is the explosive poisons that are group AOE damage. Hope this helps!
