how much does it cost to gm poisoning from 50?

Post by Freeza »

was going to roll up a poison dexxer depending on the cost- thanks all!

Also, if i don't want alchemy just poisoning, do I just buy kegs of the poison level I need from vendors?

Yeah buy kegs from vendors if your not working alch. Also it does cost a bit figure around 60k, Takes alot of poison to get the last like five points, you can poison fish steaks or weps, fish steaks work pretty good, also you can poison the same wep over and over again. Their is a good guide in WIKI. :mrgreen:

i dunno where this guy is getting 60k. it took me about 260k or so to do it. that was doing greater poison from around 65 all the way to GM, never using deadly poison. you can do it a little faster with deadly poison in the 90's but it would get insanely expensive if you did.

poisoning is probably the most expensive of the "crafting" skills to GM.

Ah, at that cost, I may skip it. As much as I want it on my dexxer, that is quite costly.

For DP weapons on monsters it could be. My ev's suck against balrons, but there poison destroys them.

I was a little of on the amount but I've not spent over 80k, now I haven't gmed poison yet and it could take another 120-160k from where I'm at but I doubt it probably more like 40-60k. so total would be around 140-160k which is still cheaper than what you guys have posted. But their is no reason to gm poison, the applied dp has the same result. So I guess its upto you if you want to go all the way. Maybe try a different macro or something try and be more cost effective. Also probably cheaper to work you're own Alch. at the same time. I'm currently between 97 and 98 poison. :mrgreen:

There is absolutely a reason to GM poisoning. The chance to hit with poison is based on the "Poisoners" skill, not the weapon holder. So a gm, would poison a weapon (or food) to hit with poison 100/25 = 25% chance. The incriments are stepped, so currently your sub-par weapons are only hitting with abot a 20%.

There is no poisoning bonus here, BUT, poisoning on a dexer allows you to refill your weapons poison on the fly, (poisoning vanqs ect..) Plus DP runs out so fast, you almost have to have poisoning unless you want to use a new weapon every 10-12 hits. It sounds odd, but it really works out well.

Yes, you have a chance to poison yourself if you fail.
