We all know how combat medic poisons stack (as listed in the FAQ). Does anybody know weapon poisons stack, with each other and with combat medic poisons? Will a gun fired twice stack a poison twice? How about two seperate guns fired, or guns with poison C's?

The most representative test would be if you had (all with150% potency, for ease of testing):

2 health poison pistols

1 health poison rifle

an individual health poison A, B, and C

an area health poison A, B, and C

If you hit a target with all of those twice, what would the final poisons which stick be? My guess would be each of the combat medic poisons and one of the weapon poisons, but am not sure.

Does anybody know how gun poisons interact with each other and with combat medic poisons, or know somebody and would be willing to test?

It's hard to find weapons with that kind of potency from my understanding.

Yes, it is. However, the "big" test I had mentioned is overkill.

It would be enough to get a single gun and poison somebody with it (however many shots that takes), then toss a set of poisons.

The example I gave would be the test to run in an ideal setting, with unlimited resources.

you can stack as many dot weapon poisons as you want with cm stuff. however you cannot poison peopl eover and over with one dot weapon, even tho it burns uses, and to the target says, you sustain more poison.

So if I'm reading this right, each gun's poison is thought of as a unique category of poisons. So you can stack an area poison A, B, and C, an individual poison A, B, and C, and as many guns as you have?

For example, in an extreme case where a person has 50 pistols with health poisons, by switching guns, in theory the victim could have 50 health poisons from guns and 6 combat medic health poisons all ticking concurrently?

Am I reading this correctly? And if so, can you confirm you have tested this, as somebody in the carbineer forum claimed you can only have one weapon poison ticking at once (although he or she didn't mention how it interplays with combat medic poisons).

Thanks, Dalraich.
