Crave wisdom of God, the sense to understand,
Else meddle not herewith, nor take it in hand.
For it will cost thee much worldly wealth;
But trust not to other, but do it thyself.
Learn, therefore, first to cleanse, purify and sublime,
To dissolve, congeal, distill and sometime
To conjoin and separate, and how to do all,
That when you think to rise, thou do not fall,
Trust to thyself and not to another;
I can say no more to thee if thou were my brother.
- Simon Forman, 1597

  • The Dexterity Debuff from the Dexterity / Constitution poisons and the Weaponskill Debuff from the Weaponskill / Constitution poisons will not stack – these debuffs will not be applied if the target is currently under the effect of the other, and the poison will not be removed from the weapon if the debuff is not able to be applied.
  • Level 1 poisons will no longer be able to be used by non-assassins – these will be correctly removed from weapons when equipped by a character that does not have the Envenom specialization.
