Diablo 2 treachery runeword11/16/2023 25% chance to cast level 15 Venom on Striking will greatly increase the Mercenary's damage, adding 305-325 Poison damage to the Mercenary's weapons for 176 seconds (just short of 3 minutes, and more than enough time to restore the effect). Treachery is most often used as relatively inexpensive Mercenary armor, when you want the Mercenary to be more offense-focused rather than defensive (in which case, Fortitude is the usual recommendation). Venom does stack with Burst of Speed or Fade (in earlier versions of the game, it was erroneously overriding Fade if cast).5% Chance To Cast Level 15 Fade When StruckĢ5% Chance To Cast level 15 Venom On Striking For example, if a necromancer with level 15 Venom from Treachery Rune Word active uses level 25 Poison Dagger (which poisons over 11.6 seconds), the duration of the poison will be set to 12 seconds (11.6 + 0.4), and Venom will provide a total of 9150-9750 damage over that period (305/0.4*12 to 325/0.4*12). This results in a monstrous amount of damage added to the skill. If a character who is buffed with Venom uses a physical skill that also inflicts poison ( Poison Dagger for example), the duration is instead set to 0.4 seconds plus the duration of the skill itself, while the rate of damage is added to the attack. Example: Though 700 damage over 10 seconds might seem impressive, only 28 damage will be inflicted due to the 0.4 seconds cap. Consequently, all other items will only inflict poison damage for 0.4 seconds. Venom caps the poisoning duration at 0.4 seconds, thus preventing long term poisoning. An Assassin who has mastered this skill secretly coats her weapons with vile toxins. Poison use is another technique an Assassin has to help even the odds when battling demons and their ilk.
