Poison

Overview

Poison is one of the 6 primary damage types within Neocron, dealt mostly by wild animals and PSI attacks.

PvE considerations

Poison damage is most commonly seen in Swamp area, but a lot of animals and dungeon mobs can do poison damage. Mob poison damage often inflicts stacks of Poisoned negative effect, dealing poison damage over time.

PvP considerations

Native poison damage is very rare, mostly seen from APU PSI attacks. Some lowtech weaponry can be modded to deal poison damage as a subtype. Without APU around, Poison resist has the lowest priority for capping.
