Poisoned Coat —
Pinpoint Poisoner — When Blue Viper successfully Strikes an Off-Guard creature with a poisoned weapon or exposes an off-guard creature to an inhaled poison, the creature takes a –2 circumstance penalty to its initial save against that poison.
Poison Spray —
Potent Poisoner — Blue Viper's infused poisons have a DC of 34.
Quick Application — Blue Viper Interacts to draw an injury poison and applies it to a weapon he is holding.
WORKS WELL WITH
AnvilLANDA frontline bruiser holds the party's attention so this poisoner can apply injury poisons and lob bombs uninterrupted.
FlankerLANDA striker that leaves foes Off-Guard sharpens the poison's save penalty, turning failed Fortitude saves into near-certainties.
SnareLANDA controller keeps targets grouped so splash damage and poison exposure punish clustering.
PUNISHES
✖ clumping✖ low Fortitude✖ melee reliance
Avoid pairing with another heavy poison specialist; redundant Fortitude-save pressure narrows the encounter to a single defensive axis.
