<DIV>Currently there are 5 colors of poisons. It is simple to equip them all, one by one, applying all 5 poisons until there are 5 poison buff icons, but do all 5 really go off? Has anyone noticed a difference between 1 poison and all 5? I went from 2 to 5 and could not see the poison proc going off much more than usual, but I was wondering about other's trials...</DIV>

<DIV>No, they dont stack.  The second poison applied wont take effect till the first poison wears off.  Same for the others applied in that order.  </DIV>

<DIV>correct poisons don't stack they just appear too.  The first one cast is the one that the system uses while the rest are just kinda there until the first wears off.  So in other words don't bother wasting money on trying to stack 5 of them just because you can <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV>

Now I know better.

Poisons DO stack, you can apply up to five on a weapon, but damage DO NOT stack <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />. Tho they proc after each other, never more often than one poison applied. Yes it's waste to apply more than one poison for now.
