#2279, "Tweak: Poisonous Bite weapons"


          

Valg encouraged me to announce this one. Poisonous bite weapons are slightly less useful for low/midlevel characters, but are unchanged for heroes:

- Less likely to poison for lower level characters
- Poison damage / difficulty of curing poison based on the lower of the wielder's level and the weapon's level instead of the weapon's level
- Poison duration based on the wielder's level

The net result should be that poisonous bite weapons still look pretty great for a number of reasons, but overall they have less kick in the midlevels. If you're a a character with poison on your spell/commune list, using it to poison instead of a poisonous bite weapon in the midlevels may seem more attractive again in some ways (longer duration, etc.)

Evenom ensures your poisonous bite lands at the wielder's level, not the weapon level.

So it's more likely to poison than your now run of the mill mediocre poisonous bite weapon for which you're forsaking weapon average to poison people with as an AP, dagger spec or shaman, etc.
