Increases the chance to apply Poisons to your target by 10%, and gives Poison applications a 50% chance to not consume a charge.

How it works

Improved Poisons is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 107. Its base value is 10.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 4. Its base value is 50. It scales with 1 times spell power.

What it does

Improved Poisons is a spell with an instant cast and no range (it targets the caster). When cast it applies an aura.

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the WoW Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70532. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
