Hello! I have a dagger with +15 insidious poison I hit a ghoul in a newbie cave (night mare) and he gets poisoned. I back away and see him beeing poisoned for 8 times and he looses 2 life every turn. Does this mean that if I hit a monster with a +15 insidious poison dagger, he loses 15 life in a certain number (here  number of moves?Suppose I hit him a second time? Will he be poisoned again? If he is, do the two poisons stack? What determines how many moves the poison is spread over? Tom |

The indicated damage is spread over 7 turns. It can be reapplied. The duration is refreshed, but the damage do not stack. Only regular poison has a stacking effect. |

There's a little more to it. Insidious poisons tend to hamper healing effectiveness as well as doing the damage listed. This means against a mob that likes to heal, that 2 damage a round can mean a huge difference, depending on the % of healing it interferes with. From my experience, I've seen from 10-57% that I can remember right now. No reason to believe that's as high or low as it goes, but even a 30% reduction on a 200 point heal is effectively 60 damage more than is listed. |
