Deadly Poison
From WoWWiki
"Crafted from my exotic mixture of plants, this poison will destroy you from within..."
Deadly Poison is a poison that is created by Rogues who then apply it to their weapons. Every time the rogue hits with the weapon, there is a 30% (40% with Rogue Talent Improved poisons) chance of the victim being poisoned for 12 seconds. The poison will deal damage over time. It can stack up to 5 times on the same victim.
Because deadly poison deals damage over time it prevents rogues afflicted by it from stealthing, and prevents all players from bandaging for more than a second. However, its continuing damage causes many forms of crowd control (polymorph, charm, freezing traps, et cetera) to break almost immediately. Deadly poison stacks up to 5 times, making it harder to remove with some spells.

Notes
- Used in the Rogue's finishing move Envenom. Use Shiv to stack Deadly poison and if done properly, you will have 5 combo points and 5 stacks of deadly poison at the same time.
- Worthy to note is that deadly poison on the target causes damage that breaks Rogue's gouge and blind, important tools for control.
- The poison of choice for raid damage, deals more damage than instant poison
