do people actually bother with poison? I can't see how getting maybe 4 hp over 2 seconds (or 1 hp over 0.5s vs deaths) is terribly relevant
I imagine just any rare brandistock with 10% ias, 5% amp, 2 sockets and slap some stat jewels in it is the best you can do. but at 40/50 reqs not sure how useful stat jewels are
psn in LLD like any elemental source is only really viable in large numbers. however even small numbers can be beneficial as anti-replife. in HLD even stacked rep doesn't reach game breaking lvls due to it being hp/secs and hp pools being MUCH larger than in LLD. in lld it can effectively be a large increase in your potential life pool over the course of the duel. OW is similar, while i does dogshit dmg even in lvl 18 LLD it is antirep, so the net dmg isn't the dmg of the skill/elemental, it's that plus rep over the duration. repeatedly applied it can add up to removing 10, 20, or 30% of the opponents lifepool they would have regenerated.
so really its good to have a LOT of any ele dmg, to clear MDR bug on the other 3 sources and just to do decent PVP in the case of poi, but even a small amount can be a lot of antireplife.
