As far as I know you need poisoning but on my temp I ran poison anyway. Darts and stars are brilliant as they are a free way to keep up poison darts up close stars from afar. If you do pvm don't underestimate parasitic poison. The Lil heals it gives can make a big difference. Also remember that toad form gives u poison when hit if you run outta charges or darts etc and snake form means you poison when you hit stuff. Having poisoning increases the level of the . poison by 1 so if u apply dp you get LP a lot of the time. Hope this helps.
