OK, I just conducted a little test. I collected the various poison resis eq that I have, and here is what I got: Orcish helmet, resis poison +30 Serpent cloak, resis poison +50 (!!!) Mudman's ring, resis poison +30 Venomtooth, resis poison +80 (!!!) TOTAL: 95% poison resistance. Alright, I admit this is quite a high-level set of eq, but even after removing serpent cloak, I still got 90% poison resis. The key ingredient here seems to be Venomtooth, though admittedly it's not that easy to get at lower levels. But even without venomtooth, I can still get 75% poison resis (with serpent cloak, that is). So anyway, the point is, I don't see poison protection as lacking at all. > And don't forget about Gnarg!! He is a warrior god and > gives poison resistance (holy possession -> +95%!). Now I wonder what happens if a Gnarg warrior is wearing all the above eq *and* casts holy poss.... :-P T -- Curiosity kills the cat. Moral: don't be the cat.
