Guild Wars 2

I recently stumbled upon a Merchant that sells Consumable Skale Venom. However, I have not figured out how the mechanics work. I thought it would have the same application effect as my own Thief Skale Venom, but this is not the case. At least not for me. I was wondering if anyone would possibly have any more insight on how it work. Thanks

It may be on a proc-on-crit chance. It’s hard to tell, but I am interested and will check it out later, do some testing and let you guys know. Also, some mobs in the world don’t take affects from stuff. Try using it against the testing dummies in the Mist.

i played around a bit with it

it adds weakness and vuln on the enemy for 2 seconds. It also procs on non critical hits. Its pretty sick actually since Weakness is a very nice debuff in WvW especially on non prec builded opponents. It also procs fairly often.

Vendor? Location? What it applies? Vague?

Where is this vendor located?

The vendor is located in Iron Marches near Bloodfin Lake (South Eastern of map). The consumable applies Skale Venom for 10 minutes. Not much else I can say, it doesnt explain much either. I hadn’t notice it working as I had “thought”. I got it from one of the merchants that hosts the events down there.

with events you mean the hearts? cant find the vendor down there…

With events. I mean escorting an NPC that patrols to the lake and then end with killing skelk throwing boulder chunks back onto the surface.

Well, the normal Skale Venom Utility applies 3x Vulnerability and Weakness for 15 seconds duration over 3 hits. Basically makes the enemy do less damage to you while he takes marginally more damage.

If you attack something, does it get a debuff? I will check out the vendor later as I wait for WvW to let you know more in detail what I find.

i found one NPC when i talk to him he starts a patroling quest where this canon heart quest is with the ghosts… but i dont think hes the one ure meaning. He’s chilling at the bridge u take to get to the cannons where u have to kill ghosts.

Not entirely sure. I stumbled upon it while it was happening. I know he goes allong the walls with 2 others then stops the skelk from putting the stones back onto land.

As for the debuff. I did nothing of the sort of 3 stacks of weakness/vuln. Thats why I am curious if it is just me, maybe its buged? Does it even work like how our venom does, etc. I was excited to see it. It sold for 16copper. I thought I maybe found on open slot for my utilities.

nvm i got it :S

pretty cool … i was looking for some auto hit poisons that you could apply as a perma buff. I wish there was one which would slow down enemys…

I must be having issues because I get nothing with the consumable. Not sure whats happening there. All my trait debuffs stick, but nothing from this.

I think I’ll give it a go in the mists as well. I might be missing something.

I guess the mist woul dhave worked if I could consume it there.

I played around with it as well now. I notice that it seems to be on a cooldown as to how often it will proc. I want to say like 30sec, but I cant say for sure.
