    Update with some added information about total damages and number of charges.

    Poison Charges.jpg

    Lesser poison MAX damage 140 points (10 ticks of 14 points) 1 nightshade per

    Regular poison MAX damage 170 points (10 ticks of 17 points) 2 nightshade per

    Greater poison MAX damage 200 points (10 ticks of 20 points) 4 nightshade per

    Deadly poison MAX damage 230 points (10 ticks of 23 points) 8 nightshade per the fail rate on this makes it closer to 16 per.

    Posting this as I was trying to determine the best level of poisoning to use on my dexxer. If greater poison worked on elves and other event-monsters it would be the clear choice. However, deadly poison is the only option if you want to do ironman runs (poisoning skill not need on your dexxer for this).

    Staying with greater poison for farming in the outer world. Normal poison would be nice to free up skill points, but there are alot of monster with near or under the 425 HP. Meaning normal poison rarely even does its full 17 points of damage.
