Description

Venom, with its puzzling lack of Enhanced Damage, belongs to the group of worst uses of a Mal Rune in the game.

Key details

  • By level 49, the 273 poison damage offered by this weapon is completely insignificant.
  • The attributes of this weapon are ostensibly synergistic with Poison Dagger, but even that use case seems ridiculous when relative to the benefits offered by Plague.

D2Emu Tips

  • Also can be crafted on bows, where the Hit Cause Monster To Flee 25% and the poison damage becomes more interesting than on a melee weapon.
  • Venom is one of the least used runewords in the game.
