Poison upgrades. #68

One of the cooler features of NwN is the vials of poison you can find or buy and the classes you can take to take advantage of them.

Unfortunately they just a little bit of housekeeping to tweak them. Right now, they are a pain.

I have brought this up before, and I know it was days to be impossible, but it's been a while so I was hoping some updates made it a possibility.

1) Poisons need to be stackable for ease of use and storage.

2) they should last 10-15 rounds per use. Right now the default is 3 rounds. It costs a round to use it, so it literally only lasts 2 rounds. Trust just isn't enough time to make it worth it to lug them around, and apply them to your weapon before a fight.

Is it possible to instead of a number of rounds, to make them last for a number of successful attacks, until the coating wears off? Feels like both more realistic and useful assessment, perhaps with an overall , say, one hour cap before it oxidizes or otherwise gums up.

That would be a pretty great solution as well. Say, okay you get a total of 5 successful hits in a 1 hour period. That would make sense, and make them much more useful.

But please oh please let's make them stackable.

yeah i agree very much with the poison changes if they aren't too difficult. Having them last only a couple rounds is just a chore and very uninteresting especially considering the very wide variety of poisons out there. Its a shame to not use them. :)
