Can you stack poisons/dieseases against an opponent. By this i mean can i use a C poison on an enemy, and then throw a B poison and have it stack with the C i have already used on my enemy. Much the same way that you can stack bleeds by using Health Shot 1 and then Health shot 2 on the same opponent?

No, dont think so. The higher one should overwrite anything already there. You can stack different types of poisons/diseases tho...like poisoning all 3 HAM pools. But that is pretty wasteful.

Poison levels are stacking,doesnt matter was it diff packs, or even another source, like your merek pet poison attack. To prove it just trypoisoning your friend multiple times. But i cant say they stack 100%, as i find that first poison applied at 100% strength, second and third only around 50%, and all next seems to add only 10-20% damage per tick. Maybe it was just myunlucky /applypoison attack, i didnt test it too much.

I have never seen them stack in all my usage of them. But what can stack is a health poison and 2 different health (bleed) shots. =)

Now that is ownage!

better question: Do poisons/diseases stack with weapon bleeds?

Aka, a 2H sword mind bleed attack and then put in a mind poison/disease... will it stack?

What I know for sure: If you poison someone already poisoned, it gives them a message saying The Poison has Increased.

You can not poison 2 different pools. Someone can be poisoned once, and diseased once. From what I've seen anyway. I have not fully experimented with this.

I've never seen additional damage from poisoning someone twice....what I have seen is this:

I throw a poison C -
Someone uses 2 Cure Poison A packs on it to reduce the poison
I throw another poison C
Damage is back to full.

I don't know if it stacks, or adds damage, or just reapplies the same level of poison.

So a health desease followed by a health poison and then a double pistol bleed.

Would the desease then just act as a DOT accelerator by ticking off before the poison thus increasint the overall tick of the combo? I would think you could kill any player in 2 ticks using this as it would equate out to 1 full wounding and 2 dmg ticks. But i am still about 20000 med xp from master so give me a day and i will test.

Disease and poison stacked are really a waste in my opinion. Disease does maybe 150-200 wounds a tick, my poison is near 600 damage a tick. And when they are on their back, the disease does nothing.

More then one pool can be poisoned. I've tested this. They do stack with bleeds. I don't think the tics increase when two poisons are placed on the same pool (have not done much testing with this however). Poisons and disease can be placed on the same pool(s) but it is often wasteful (incapping will occur before wounds usually).

One thing I have found is that you can stack a normal C poison with an area C poison of the same stat.

Example: I routinely will toss a health C poison at Mobs, and then toss a Area Health C poison. I have 290 area tick and 425 single tick, sometimes it will display the ticks combined together (above the mob head 715 will tick), or sometimes it will display seperately (will tick 290 and 425 every time).

It will not display 2 different poison icons, so you have to remember what you've already applied.

I havent tested any other combinations yet.

they stack with other poisons and also stack with all and any dieases.

I have tried to get some people to volunteer to test this on TC, but since the power level session we had for the musicians and dancers no one will step forward. I don't understand why it was only a minor headache i gave them.
