Ares's Pray and Envenom Wednesday, October 1st, 2008 at 1:46 pm
What is Ares' Pray suppose to do? I don't see healing improving much just because +5pty. Probably because I have 1/2 penalty + 1/2 penalty for multiclass.
Ares/Assassin: Why can't I envenom? Did we take that out of the skills for multiclass?

Ares pray is supposed to increase con or strength..don't remember which.
Envenom is not allowed for them, and they are not supposed to be able to be cleric/assassins anyway. If they are now, then that is broken.

Ares' Berserk gives +3 Str, 1.25 weapon damage and -100 armor points, no flee and have to neutral to use. In actually 1.25 is barely anything compared to the negative effects of it. Rarely used.
Ares' Pray gives +5pty. This has no effect other that resist-magic. Tick is maxed out and with all the negatives of ares' healing, the +5 is not going to do anything.
Book of Knowledge still says envenom. I guess the book of knowledge is old and shouldn't be followed.

Ouch, haha. Although, I remember asking around about envenom when considering M/A and it does seem like no one uses it. Maybe the damage done vs poison costs aren't worth it? Or are people just lazy? =P

On mobs it isn't really worth it from a cost/benefit standpoint and it doesn't really work on perms - and, last I knew, you don't get exp from dmg done by poison.
The only practical use I can see for it is pk'ing...which is hard to do if you're the only one logged on
