Skills and Attributes

The following attributes will affect this combat art:

  • Stamina will lower regeneration time penalty.

Usage Strategies

  • Venom has some synergy with Blade Fury modded for poison damage. It can boost the chance for poisoning and also the poison damage if the Cruelty mod is chosen.

  • Even if not focusing on Poison damage, the Assassin can get a lot of good use out of Venom because it boosts all weapon damage, and can be modded to improve attack and defense.
