What about poisons

    My poisons used to hit for a million. Now that I have more stats I noticed that all they do is the base damage. Did I do something wrong? Or it's a new unnoticed nerf?

    Last time I checked must have been even longer, but wasnt really into what damage it would do, now that we try raiding I checked ACT and it is 0% overall, I remember using infused savants caustic and it hit for 1m+

    Red poisons (caustic, hemotoxin) damage got nerfed years ago (want to say after/around KA - not sure on exact timeline since I took a break between Fabled Zek and BoL, but during KA I was still using them). The only ones that are worth anything nowadays are the debuff poisons and ignorant bliss. At least on Live - not sure on Kaladim.

    Yeah it's another one of those things where you can put a fair amount of AA into boosting your poisons to go from 0%, all the way to 0%. Such great design.

    As said, damage poisons like hemo/caustic took a major hit as to be worthless. Now it's mostly debuff "poisons." Actually, if you look at most of the potions currently in use, they're worthless. Power regen doesn't work at all. Thankfully mana stones still are around.

    And AA-upgrades for some classes still include poisons. Developers are usually silent :confused:
