Game Forum / Role Playing Games / Diablo / March 2006bow and psn damage
Hey All, Does anyone know if poison damage stacks when using a bow? Say i have five Toxic sc (100psn dmg/5 sec), and can strafe twice a second (hi ias) up to 20 monsters, (in therory, if i hit 100%, its 10K psn/5 sec) would the psn damage stack, or would it 'overwrite-itself' and only consider the last arrow's poison damage. I only remember back in 1.09 that it doesn't stack, but back then I was using a Sin, so I really never paid that much attention to it. Does anyone know how psn dmg and bows work together, or know of a link tia ChristoMephisto USWest ChristoMephisto schrieb: > Hey All, > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > that it doesn't stack, but back then I was using a Sin, so I really > never paid that much attention to it. No, it doesn't stack. IMHO the only useful source for poison damage is from skills like fully synergized Plague Javelin, Poison Nova, Venom and maybe Rabies. Other poison sources like charms or runes are useless these days, at least for PvM (don't know about PvP). > Does anyone know how psn dmg and bows work together, or know of a link I only know of a calculator in German language: http://diablo2.ingame.de/tips/calcs/giftcalc.php Smaragd = emerald Waffe = weapon Giftschaden = poison damage Benutzen = use Anzahl = number Dauer = duration --- Hannes thx for the feedback thought it didnt do anything 'cause i noticed i killed 'cleaner' with out psn maybe it has to claculate all the damage before it dies in that second so, psn sc are good for what build, cant imagine someting that trades so high is so useless thx ChristoMephisto MySweetJezzebel 91Zon USWest ChristoMephisto schrieb: > thx for the feedback > thought it didnt do anything 'cause i noticed i killed 'cleaner' with [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > so, psn sc are good for what build, cant imagine someting that trades > so high is so useless Maybe for PvP players? I don't know. --- Hannes > ChristoMephisto schrieb: > > thx for the feedback [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Maybe for PvP players? I don't know. Oh hell no. In 1.09, I had an amazin that was loaded to the gills with PD. Her name was, of course, GreenEyedLady, and she was a stone cold killer. Made 99 in about 3 weeks, iirc.

Shooting the monster again within those 5 seconds merely resets the 5 second duration - the damage will never exceed the 100 per second no matter how many times you shoot it (there's a rounding exception, but it can be safely ignored for discussion purposes). While poison is really good at clearing out small creatures (anything less than 500 life, in this case), it becomes rather useless against creatures with life in the tens of thousands. In 1.10+, bows and melee weapons apply poison damage the same. Earlier versions calculated damage differently and it was possible to reach ridiculous levels of damage (one-shot kills on Hell cows in 8-player games kind of ridiculous). -- Zamboni |
