Poison I

Supports any skill that Hits enemies, giving it a chance to Poison enemies.

POEXPLORER FIELD NOTE

How to think about it

This gives eligible hits a route to poison. Chance to apply, hit frequency, chaos or physical contribution, and poison scaling must all work together before it becomes a real damage engine.

COMPATIBILITY METHOD
