Poisons!

[lipsinch 46]

Hello again, folks!

Now my question is PvE related. =P

I currently play Mut spec. I'm curious about how Poisons scale. Are they scaled from Agi, it's fixed damage (scaled only by mastery) or Spell Power? Anyone can enlight me on this one?

Thanks!

I might be wrong here, but i'll go ahead and post what i know about poisons. As far as i understand the potions are scaled with lvl and only improved by mastery for assassination. which is also why poison dmg is so extremly low for sub and comb spec cuz they have no poison dmg increase buff, such as assasination get from mastery.

I know for sure that rogue spells in general, including poisons do not scale with spell power.

I might be wrong with the scaling here, so pls correct me if i am wrong.

Looking at the tooltip on WoWDB, it says that Deadly Poison scales with Attack power.

Ok. Seems like Agi (thus AP, or perhaps Agi only) increases poison damage, from what I tested here.

Edit: Nice pic, bearr. Might do that cut on my beard.

Edit2: This was tested on Mut Spec only. Will post with Sub and Cbt specs later, but I'm pretty sure it might work teh same way.

Poisons were changed to scale with AP for all specs in the 3.0 patch before Wrath I believe. And at least for Mut it should also be scaling with mastery as well, if I am not mistaken.

So, basically, what Horcored said.
