    Automatic poison not working

    I am encountering an issue where I have the Arachne stingers daggers equipped to give automatic poison but none of my basic melee strikes are giving me the buff. I’ve tried unequipping and reequipping but that doesn’t work. Anyone else come across this and is there a fix? Admittedly not tried upgrading the daggers yet but waiting for the next level before I do that as don’t want to waste too much resource! Thanks!

    It doesn't give you automatic poison damage .... What it gives you is Warrior Damage which is higher than poison damage **IF** you use them with the poison ability that puts poison on your weapons for 30 seconds .... Basically when you use them with poison you get a dagger's weapon damage plus whatever your warrior damage is

    Note that it's great if you have a Warrior build but if you have an Assassin or Hunter build the difference if any isn't all that much

    Thanks but the engraving on the daggers is “weapon damage becomes poison damage” so why when I am in warrior mode and have all 3 tiers of poison bought (but not activated) has it stopped giving me poison on my weapons? It was working before and suddenly stopped but unfortunately I can’t remember where this happened to try and figure out why. Any ideas are welcome.

    Arachnes stingers poison not working

    In case you are still looking for an answer. Try switching hands with the stingers. My poison turned back on when I changed from left to right, or maybe right to left. Either way try that and see.

    Hey, thank you for adding to this thread we do our best to reply to everyone, however we sometimes miss some questions.

    Indeed this dagger should apply poison damage to your attacks, and it is T to switch hands if you play on PC.

    All the best!
