Will Snakebite Mitts be a thing now that Poison stacks ?

Since Frenzy charge is very often used, can Snakebite be a thing now that Poison stacks ?
Hard to say until the full details of the changes come through, but fingers crossed. I've always liked the idea of the Snakebites, but never really been able to incorporate them into a build in any meaningful fashion.

For anyone who can't remember them:

Massive thanks to GGG for producing such a fun and engaging game, it has taken up faaaaaaar too much of my life over the last 5 years.

Best of luck in the future!
Time to get three of those -1 max frenzy charge jewels.

I do think it's better this way, having 0/0 frenzy charge via pacifism jewel would mean using 3 sockets and waste Snakebite Attack Speed and Accuracy Rating. Not sure if worth :P

This depends entirely on the opportunity cost to poison.

Let's imagine you have to link "poison" to your links. That's a gem slot gone and a gem slot usually equals a roughly 20% more damage increase.

These gloves could provide people with a 7-link.

In some cases, that might be worth it. It also has life on it and they are common, so they can be corrupted for something fun.

Peace,

You're right, but we don't know if a single hit can Poison several times (like Adder's Touch + Snakebite)

You lose out on the %more damage and attack speed from frenzy charges also (at least 12% more damage + 18% attack speed) and 3 jewel sockets. Not really worth it imo.
