Poisoning in PvP

[dlo88]

I know it used to be really gimp years ago, but I was told that they changed the difficulty on curing lethal poison with both potions and arch cure. Is it enough to justify fitting poisoning back onto one of my dexxers? I used to love the dp kryss/cleaver combo

I use it on 2 of my chars (a mage and dexxer). I find it to be well worth the points. Even people who are prepared with pots fail the DP cures and anyone not prepared is going to have a very hard time and usually ends up spending their whole time trying to cure the poison.

Exactly what I wanted to hear

 

[dlo88]

What is the minimum skill needed to inflict lethal poison with a weapon?

 

[Picus at the office]

80 poison and 120 weapon skill, or straight 100 poison I believe.

 

[Kellgory]

I believe the 80 and 120 to get to 200 combined skill was the old way for mages to hit lethal, but I believe that for melee chars, once you hit 80 poisoning then anything above that increases the odds of hitting lethal. It's been a while, so things may have changed.
