What's your favourite poison or rot weapon? 😀

Venomous fangs are kinda weird. They do deadly poison, which does more damage than normal poison but last a short amount of time. If you were to put a poison affinity on it, then the deadly poison affect last the same amount of time as normal poison while still doing high damage. Beat the game with these, it was a blast.

You forgot the best poison weapon: coil shield

Venomous fang is A tier atleast. It does deadly poison buildup- which does twice the damage of regular poison but only lasts a third as long (which means you can proc it multiple times and combine it with kindred of rot talisman to increase attack power). It is infusable, so you can set it to occult and with 63 arcane it has 145 deadly poison buildup, which translates to 190 deadly poison buildup for each dual wield attack (which come out pretty fast). Next, it does pierce damage, which means that you can combine it with spear talisman. And it is a paired weapon, which means that you can use RKR on it and get it on both weapons at the same time, translating to 2000+ damage on a single jump R2 if you build for it, and instantly proccing poison on enemies that are weak to it.

The best thing about weapons with innate poison and you can change the ash of war is the fact that you can infuse them with occult and just use a character spec for arcane. Phenomenal physical damage and typically one or two hits for the poison to go off

I use the serpent bow on almost all characters. It's still not great, but it's very useful for putting poison or rot on certain enemies. The only other poison/rot weapon I've used is the antspur rapier, and I haven't used it enough to really rate it.

Every time I watch you I learn new things. Glad I found this channel been needing help and can only rely on this ❤❤

Used the Antspur Rapier to beat the Final DLC Boss. I couldn't beat him with any other weapons.

Serpent bone blade or what ever it’s called, that is my favorite posin weapon 😅

The cotana has a hibin side effect of lowering the consecutive attack buffs requirements

The arcane on the bow is for applying psn scaling

You forgot the shield. Also the Serpent Bow does scale with Arcane. I have 99 Arcane 99 Dex and 71 Strength. I'm currently pushing for 99 Str and I can say that with the exception of using the Erdtree Bow for Undead or the Jar Cannon on Commander Niall the Serpent Bow is the Best ranged weapon in the game. I out range and kill everything that is not behind a fog wall. Why get hit when you don't have to. Most non boss enemies in NG + die to one or 2 shots.

i had a blast a playthru with the antspur rapier making it poison / rot with seppuku and in the other hand rocking the ice needle. Mainly did it for fashion cause i wore D´s armor so the silver glove held the ice needle which has a silver handle and the gold glove held the antstpur with gold handle. Fashion for the win but it was also busted.

The arc on the serpent bow increases the build up that the arrows do I believe

I did have some fun with a rot/poison/bleed build using dual great hammers. I really don't like the rotten duelist hammer, but it allowed all 3 statuses if you give it one of the poison ashes and bloody modifier, or vice versa. I also ran poison great stars to make up for range. Works well for pve, but godawful for pvp

Two scavenger curved blades, one poison, one blood, Reduvia with scorpion tail, scarlet aonia, kindred rot exultation and lord of blood exultation, milacents prosthesis, and the talisman that buffs for successive hits.

Think you're sleeping on the hammer, put a frostbite infusion on that in your off hand, and then a bloodflame blade cast on your main? Sounds utterly killer to me

Antspur rapier is def S tier! Especially in NG+ with 2 of them. Trivialize bosses like Moghwyn. I put Blood Tax on main hand and Freezing Mist Ash on off hand. Love the powestancing move set on thrusting swords. Stacks Rot, Frost, and Bleed very quickly. Blood Tax Ash heals you for a nice chunk of health. Very powerful.

Hourah Loux's Earthshaker works great for any fist weapon, probably choosing poison affinity

I mean if you get two of the hammers, which you’d have to get from a friend from their world but you can dual wield them and have one have frostbite and I don’t remember if you put another ash of war in the other or maybe you put both frost bite but then you have dual hammer combos and they’re pretty fast and good plus Scarlet rot and frostbite, shits nuts.

I wanted to like the Serpentbone Blade katana but the poison doesn't scale. Dual wielding this sword with it in my off-hand to add some passive poison was my plan but it just took too long to get the poison to proc. It was easier to just put the Poisonous Mist AoW on the Ugigatana for faster poison status.

I dual wield Rotten Staff and they're good

somehow, i got 2 rotten staves to drop from the avatar that drops it. so, as a joke, i maxed both and made a build out of it. mainly just poisoned myself and got the buffs from the poison helm and talisman, but the weapons actually procced scarlet rot often enough to make it worth while. 10/10 weapon

Serpent bow does deadly poison. Very good when paired with moth flight.

I was playing with the Rotten Great Axe in newgame plus and I paired it with Axe of Godfrey in the off-hand. I put Flame of the Redmanes on the Rotten Great Axe. Poising breaking freight train... almost 2000AR between the two, plus proc Rot on bigger enemies... delicious.

serpent bows arc scaling dictates poison build-up it adds to arrows, not damage

I like the servant bone bl as de myself. Just looks cool does enough damage

4:30 he sparta kicks a guy of a ledge

Coil Shield is my favorite poison weapon

I beat promised consort Radhan with the rot rapier

You forgot to put the rotten crystal staff in F

Black bow is incredible i got it to +10 before my blasphemous blade whatchu talkin bout 🤔

Antspur rapier can have for status effects on it

Idk if it's because my arcane isn't pumped high or if I didn't upgrade the weapon but the Serpent Bow has never poisoned anything for me even after putting like 40 arrows in an enemy

Do you use any mods to test weapons? I've been wanting to download a mod that gives me all the items and weapons because it takes so painfully long to develop a character in this game; but I've never used mods, so I don't know where to begin.

You could put where to find these weapons at but good video none the less. Location, location, location. Lol

Wouldn't F tier be the rotten scepter?

bro said lemme know how wrong it is, i got u. OBJECTIVELY

I love crystal scarlet rot sword

Don't forget rotton crystal staff! Applies scarlet rot and boosts crystal sorcery

dont u need to make it occult for it to scale with arcane? the bow i mean

and id say the fangs are the A tier

Only reason bows are in the game is to farm mogwins palace

Honestly the rot hammer is severely underrated. I don’t use great hammers for range, I use them for stance breaking and damage. And that weapon is way faster than the greataxe but does loads of stance damage.

I like to put Rot or Poison grease on my Bloodhound Fang works really well

TTOGetthaAA!

bleed/poison/rot antspear rapiers are stupid in pvp - people just die and its disgusting and i love it.

Black bow….

14

Lol I love seeing people play this game in way they won't be able to take it into the arenas.
