poison/lesser poison significantly need a buff

or you could search these build guide and nobody would use them on poison build.

they are too weak................ especially compared to "chance to bleed"----------even they need to combine to one so that they could reach it.

it's ok if they are unusual support gems, but they are the most standard poison support gems.
it's strange that poison build don't want to use them just like a elemental atk build don't want to use Elemental Damage with Attacks Support

they really need a buff

Poison should buff the damage mod to 49% more poison damage at least, even 60%more is ok
and the chance to poison could be buffed to 100%

Lesser poison should buff to the same level to chance to bleed------------ so add a new mod"10%--29%more poison damage" would be ok.

Poison need like 12L skill to even bother.

I tested some of my old assassin Poison build, most items are now pointless but still managed to scale some 800% crit multiplier and decent base damage with chaos/poison scaling.

Conclusion was that i will do way more damage with attack even tho i scale poison, generally i gonna do 100x more damage/sec with different more attack base setup then with poison.

This day poison is more a question of mechanic, how to apply lots of hits and do loots of aps.

Poison is only viable with something rapid which is stupid.

In previous versions of Ascendancy, my Noxious Strike/ Toxic Delivery Assassin used Poison Support to supercharge Ground Slam, and Viper Strike as a single-target boss killer. After the last round of skill tree revisions, I had no better option than to ditch both Toxic Delivery and Poison Support, keeping only Viper Strike since its extended duration lets you stack enough poison hits to eventually kill your targets. The build still works, but the Assassin has been totally stripped of the bleed and maim synergies that used to metastatize poison into a berserk epidemic of DOT depredation. As for Lesser Poison Support, the name couldn't be more appropriate.

I don't think chance to poison is a very important resource if it could be stack to over 100%,even so, its too hard to stack to 200% now.


a poison atk build is not hard to stack to 100% chance by equipment and passive tree. maybe spell poison build need use it.
