Weapon poison detail

Weapon poison requires level 60 Herblore to make. It is made by mixing clean kwuarm and dragon scale dust in a vial of water, giving 137.5 Herblore experience. It is the weakest variant of weapon poison.

Applying weapon poison will give you a chance to poison your opponent in combat. The poison effect appears as a buff and lasts for 2.5 minutes, dealing between 12-26% of your ability damage per hit.

Poison has a 1/6 chance per hit of being applied. This deals poison damage and renews the poison duration. Poison will also hit every 10 seconds and wear off after 3 minutes.

It is dropped by ankous, warped tortoises, and shadow warriors. It also can be a reward from Observatory Quest.

Trivia[]

  • After the Evolution of Combat update, existing weapon poison potions were replaced with 3 dose poisons. However, the old weapon poison version is still obtainable from monsters as a drop, such as warped tortoises and ankous. This version does not have the ability to let the player to poison others, nor apply the poison to any weapons (the original function). In order to solve this problem, drop the potion and it will automatically change to weapon poison (3). This has yet to be fixed. These unconverted potions retain the examine text of "For use on daggers and projectiles."
  • The value of weapon poison in Mobilising Armies is 29 investment credits.
