Nope it actually uses willpower i think same as magical resistance.

So high willpower=high magres/poisoning and you get ill less :)

To be honest, I don't belive what Alexander said.

Wait what a Dev or an other Staffmember says.

Thats for "resistening" it, but the original question was for "causing" the poisonous effect ;)

probly a good idea Jupiter. While on the subject of poisoning i thought id also ask if fighting with poisoned wepons is the only way to lvl the skill up? seem slow if you ask me, is that because of how good it is at a high lvl? whats the deal? any kind of poison info would be apriciated :wink:

and the skill is not damage with poison it is resistance so getting attacked with poison weapons will increase it.... I think :|

1. Snake swords are slow, so not good for skilling poisoning.
2. It doesn't work on undead, I think. It really shouldn't anyway.
3. Poisoning increases as slowly as magic resistance, maybe slower.

Snake sword are completely useless, even though they have possibly the best poison. There is a way to make them an extremely effective weapon, but only I know the secret(yeah right)

Just wanted to point out that enduring hardship means more so the ability to get through difficulties in life, such as getting thrown out of town or locked in prson for all of eternity because you told the guard that the salks would free you so he never wrote it down...

That sort of information isn't supposed to be given out in Illarion. Meaning, what stats do what in game won't be told by the Developers or Game Masters. Common sense and testing is the only way you should know what they do.

But the wiki doesn't tell you anything. I'm sure what you think are perfect fighters stats are completely opposite to what actually are.

I guess your Intelligence have to do with it. My feeling. In addition to others, wich depends on it.

I also guess there ins't a perfect warriorattribute... its more like stone paper scissor... one package beats the other.

I assume dex, but that's a stab in the dark, and intelligence helps you learn it quicker.

Okay before everyone stabs into the dark and someone gets hurt, I give you a answer.

Its far easier then you think. The attribute you need is: none.
The better you can use your weapon (and that needs some attributes) the more often you will poison your target. The reason for this is, if you are able to get handle a weapon better you are able to wound your target more often.
