Thread: Does this venom have any value?

Advanced Infection Amplifiers have a maximum power of 60, I believe. A Spider Venom takes the place of that. So in order to determine a Spider Venom's worth--simply look at the difference in power.


A Spider Venom of 223 will produce a poison or disease that is 163 effectiveness points higher than 60 power Adv IA. A disease of 275 for example, or a poison of maybe 463. Is it worth anything? It all depends on what people think. Yes, it's better than standard crafted items, but it doesn't make "that" much of a difference.


These Spider Venoms of 90 power I think are worthless...they are so much trouble for so little gain. It would have to be over 200 for me to consider using it. Otherwise, I'd just sell it to "Uber Joe N00b" whose resources are so bad b/c he insists on being a FOTM CM crafter that he needs Spider venom just to bring his packs up to speed.


But that's just my opinion.


Edit: Each poison/disease B or C pack requires two Infection Amplifiers (and thus SV). An A pack requires only one. So these three can make one C pack, and an A pack. Unless you get a critical fail, of course.

Hi y'all!


My friend recently looted 3 identicle spider venom with power of 232.


I know that because there is only 3 its value is lower but is it still useful? Any other comments and info would be really helpful.

This is not a price check. Im just trying to get a better understanding of how the power of the venomhelps poisons and how useful these are despite the fact that there is only 3.

Thanks!


So ur saying that since the power is over 200 it is worth using rather than just throwing it away. Thank you.

None of it should be thrown away. All venom is better then what we can make. I think he is saying he sells 90 power venom.

The average power of looted venom is 90. Anything higher than that is exceptional or legendary class stuff. What you have there has the potential to become that famed 1000 damage per tick stuff. You also hit the jackpot since thats like a 1 in 100,000 chance to get that kind of stuff.
