rangers and magic poison damage
just a short post to see how people would react to the idea of adding poison protection to rangers in addition to cold protection. it looks reasonable for me as they used to deal with poisons a lot. poison salves can do their work only if you are poisoned with poisons on weapons or if someone nasty bites you. but we also have such a weird things like magic poison darts and so on. and i think rangers could have some form of defence from it too. adding a skill or some version of salves which if applied would give protection from magic poisons.
or should we have such type of magic at all?

Nah
Then alchemists, shadowdancers and everyone else dealing with poisons should have this +resistance. Oh, and I want fire resistance since I make a lot of fireplaces.

And of all the melee classes, rangers are the most likely to get poisoned and then die from it. Either restistance, or reduced damage (or both of course) would be nice. And since there is little/no market for their poison removal ability, some rangers dont even know/have forgoten it exist (which is kinda sad accualy).
There are things called blessings for that stuff and items with poison resistance.hors wrote:well, but again i was not talking about being poisoned. i was talking about poison darts and arrows mobs casts on you. about magical stuff. or do rangers have someting to deal with it that i do not know about?

Magical attacks of the damage type poison can be resisted with resistances, but i dont think rangers should get any kind of poison resist skill. That would only open a loophole for all other classes and all other damagetypes.
If you are poisoned however, know that rangers dont just dabble in poisons, they also deal with some beneficial mixtures.
Most importantly, as a shadowdancer i learned one simple truth: After mixing poisons, don't lick your fingers!
