Instant Poison
From WoWWiki
- "This may sting a bit..."
Instant Poison is the first damaging poison a rogue can use. Once applied to a weapon, each successful hit will have a 20% (up to 30% with the Improved Poisons talent) chance to inflict nature damage instantly.
Instant Poison and Crippling Poison are the first poisons a rogue may use after finishing the required quest at level 20. Additional ranks may be used at appropriate levels.
Instant Poison Ranks
| Rank | Level Required | Damage |
|---|---|---|
| I | 20 | 13-17 |
| II | 28 | 21-25 |
| III | 36 | 30-38 |
| IV | 44 | 45-57 |
| V | 52 | 62-80 |
| VI | 60 | 76-100 |
| VII | 68 | 161-215 |
| VIII | 73 | 245-327 |
| IX | 79 | 300-400 |
Every rank of Instant Poison does an additional 0.1 * AP damage.
Notes
- Safe to use in any situation, as it has no CC-breaking DoTs.
- Nature damage is not reduced by armor, so it is more effective against heavily armored opponents.
- Flat 20% proc rate means that fast weapons deal more poison damage.
- Shiv can be used to automatically apply the poison, effectively increasing flat damage of the attack.
- Without points in Improved Poisons, Wound Poison, because of its higher proc rate, does more damage.
