Poison Bomb
Your automatic Envenom casts have a 25% chance to trigger Poison Bomb, a direct Nature explosion hitting up to 5 enemies within 8 yards of the target. The direct-damage child cannot apply periodic effects or recursively proc.
Deathmark
Mark an enemy for 6 seconds. Each owned Garrote, Rupture, Deadly Poison or Crimson Tempest tick produces one additional direct Nature hit for its base tick damage. Echoes use a separate non-periodic spell and cannot apply or refresh DoTs.
Crimson Tempest
AoE finishing bleed; faster ticks preserve base duration. Haste makes this periodic effect happen more often without shortening its base duration.
Indiscriminate Carnage
A 6-second window: your Garrote and Rupture casts spread owned bleeds to up to 5 nearby enemies within 8 yards. Rupture only spreads to Deadly Poison targets and copies retain remaining duration. Use Crimson Tempest for direct AoE bleed setup; this window copies existing bleeds.
Garrote
Bleed target and up to 2 nearby enemies; Indiscriminate Carnage increases the cap to 5; faster ticks preserve base duration. Haste makes this periodic effect happen more often without shortening its base duration.
Rupture
Finishing bleed applies to up to 2 nearby poisoned enemies; Indiscriminate Carnage increases the cap to 5; faster ticks preserve base duration. Haste makes this periodic effect happen more often without shortening its base duration.
Mutilate
Both weapon hits are independently eligible for normal proc handlers, including Deadly Poison; Mutilate applies no new bleed, does not alter bleed ticks, and does not directly grant Venomous Wounds Energy.
Deadly Poison
Periodic poison damage; faster ticks preserve base duration. Haste makes this periodic effect happen more often without shortening its base duration.
Envenom
A Deadly Poison hit at maximum Combo Points and 35 or more Energy automatically casts Envenom. It spends 35 Energy, keeps Combo Points available for finisher damage, then consumes all points; an owner recursion guard suppresses nested poison-triggered finishers.
Kingsbane
Each successful Deadly Poison application and both opening weapon strikes add a 15% damage stack while Kingsbane is active. Every Envenom cast, including the automatic finisher, reduces Kingsbane cooldown by 1 second.
Crimson Vial
Heal for 30% of maximum health over 6 seconds. Each Deadly Poison damage tick reduces its cooldown by 250 ms; this is a direct event reduction, not a HASTE-tagged periodic effect.
