Poison damage overlay

Poison Damage normally causes a target to turn green when poisoned, a state which stops damage regeneration and can apply poison damage over the state's length. However, if cold length or Holy Freeze are also applied then the target remains or turns blue.

Damage of multiple types can be applied by the same attack, but only one damage overlay is displayed at a time: this means that poison damage can still be applied even if the only overlay displayed is for fire, lightning or cold damage.
It is not added to Smite or Lightning Bolt.
While damage is displayed in points and length in seconds, both are calculated and applied using more precise units of measurement: each point is divided into 1/256ths, while each second is divided into 25 frames. [1]
Targets are poisoned if as little as 1/256 poison damage is applied per frame.
Poison damage is displayed as the total damage applied over its length, but it's calculated by applying its 1/256 damage rate for a specified number of frames: a Toxic Small Charm applies poison damage at a rate of 205/256 for 125 frames, which is displayed as 100 Poison Damage Over 5 Seconds (125 * 205/256 over 125/25).
Poison damage from multiple attacks doesn't sum: if a target is already poisoned, then the rate and length of that poison will be overwritten by that of any subsequent attack which has an equal or greater rate. Rates are compared after all modifiers have been applied. [2]
When player, mercenary or pet applies poison to a poisoned monster, their poison is applied for one frame instead of the current poison: if their poison has an equal or greater rate, it then overwrites the current poison and it gets applied for its length; if their poison has a lower rate, the current poison then continues for its remaining length. Rates are compared after all modifiers have been applied. More generally, poison damage does not get applied in frames in which any damage from other sources is applied (although poison and Open Wounds both apply simultaneously). [3] [4]
When using Whirlwind while equipping two weapons with the same attack rate against a single target (which can result in poison damage being applied by both attacks in the same frame), each attack applies one frame of its poison damage, then the highest rate is applied for its remaining length. When equal rates are applied, the length of the last is applied (whichever is the secondary weapon for that attack check). [5]
When monsters apply poison to a player, mercenary or pet, their poison is applied for one frame as well as the current poison: if their poison has an equal or greater rate, it then overwrites the current poison and it gets applied for its length; if their poison has a lower rate, the current poison then continues for its remaining length. Rabies and Poison Creeper can also apply additional frames of poison damage when applied to more than one monster.
Poison damage can kill monsters, mercenaries and pets but will only reduce players to 1 life (although poison damage from a subsequent attack would kill them if they remained on 1 life). [6]

Item

If a single item has both a prefix and a suffix applying poison damage, then the rates and lengths of both are simply added. [7]

Source	Poison Damage			Frame Rate (1/256)		Frames
Source	Min	Max	Seconds	Min	Max	Frames
Toxic Small Charm	100	100	5	205	205	125
Small Charm of Anthrax	50	50	6	86	86	150
Toxic Small Charm of Anthrax	313	313	11	291	291	275

Displayed damage is rounded to the nearest point, although it should always be rounded down. When multiple items applying poison damage are equipped, then the rates are added and the lengths are averaged. [8]

Source	Poison Damage			Frame Rate (1/256)		Frames
Source	Min	Max	Seconds	Min	Max	Frames
Toxic Small Charm of Anthrax	313	313	11	291	291	275
Blackbog's Sharp Cinquedeas	488	488	10	500	500	250
Perfect Emerald	100	100	7.16	143	143	179
Total				934	934	704

853 _188/256 (234 * 934/256) poison damage over 9.36 ( [704/3] /25) seconds is applied (values are rounded down to the nearest 1/256 and frame). Gems, jewels and runes all count as separate items, even if they're socketed in a single item. [9]
Length is calculated differently when multiple items applying poison damage are used with skills that apply less than 100% weapon damage.
- Poison length = [sum of lengths / (sources - 1) ]
  - Multiple Shot
  - Strafe
  - Blade Sentinel using one-handed weapon
  - Blade Fury using one-handed weapon
- Poison length = sum of lengths
  - Blade Sentinel using two-handed weapon
  - Blade Fury using two-handed weapon [10] [11] [12]

Skill

Skill level is set when the player uses the skill: adding or removing skill bonuses won't have any effect on rate or length if there's a delay between using the skill and applying poison damage.
While skills are normally treated as separate sources of poison damage whose rates (and accompanying lengths) compete with those of other skills and items, Poison Dagger and the javelins (but not the clouds) of Poison Javelin and Plague Javelin combine skill damage rate with any item rates added to attack damage; the length for which this combined rate is applied is calculated by summing skill and item lengths, and dividing by the number of items. [13]

If the only item used were Blackbog's Sharp Cinquedeas, 9824-10220 rate for 590 ((250+340)/1) frames would apply 22,641-23,553 poison damage over 23.6 (590/25) seconds. Although the rate is lower with only one item, the length can be significantly longer and results in far more damage from a single stab.
Character screen does not display total poison damage correctly when skill and item rates combine: it simply adds total poison damage from items to skill damage. [14]

¹ Level > 36 Poison Javelin displays higher minimum than maximum damage because the minimum rate added per level for level > 28 is higher than the maximum rate added. When this occurs, the minimum damage effectively becomes the maximum and the maximum damage becomes the minimum. [15]
² Javelins apply combined rates of skill and attack poison damage from items and Venom, over their combined lengths divided by the number of items (combined skill length only when Venom is cast). Character screen simply adds total attack poison damage to skill damage. [16]

Venom's damage rate is added to those from items added to attacks for its 4*slvl + 116 second duration. However, its 10 frame length overrides those of any items.

Venom's length does not override those of the skills Poison Dagger, Poison Javelin and Plague Javelin. Casting Venom can thus significantly increase the rate applied by these skills while not reducing length. Since Venom effectively creates a single source which sums the rates of Venom and items but which only applies for Venom's length, the length is the sum of the skill length and that of Venom. [17]

[21]

Poison damage and length is added to attack damage of some monsters, while others can fire missiles or use skills applying it. Monster poison attack damage and length is calculated as follows:

Stat	Value
Frame Rate (1/256)	[ [MonLvl * ElD/100] * (15 + # players) /16] * 10
Frames	[ElDur * (15 + # players) /16] * 2

ElD and ElDur are the entries in the relevant ElMin/MaxD and ElDur columns of MonStats.txt respectively. [22]

Below is a summary of all the steps in the calculation of poison damage. To express total damage in points applied over a length in seconds:

Points

= [ Rate * Frames /256 ]

Seconds

= Frames /25

0

Rate

= [ ( [ [B * S] * M] + [ (I + [V * M] ) * M] ) * R]

Frames

= [F * R]

0

[ ]	Round down
B	Skill rate
I	Item rates
V	Venom rate
M	+X% Poison Skill Damage		M = (100+X) /100
S	+X% poison damage synergy		S = (100+X) /100
R	Resist		R = (100-X) /100
	If	P >= 100 and P - [L/5] < 100
		then X = P - [L/5]
		else R = 0
	If	P < 100
	If	then X = max(P - (L+E) , -100)
	P	Poison Resist X%	P = X
	L	Lower Resist (PR -X%)	L = X
	E	-X% EPR	E = X

F	Items	= item lengths / items
	Items + Skill	= (skill + item lengths) / items
	Items + Venom	= Venom length
	Skill + Venom	= skill + Venom lengths
R	Resist	R = (100-X) /100
	If	P < 100
		then X = max(P-E , -100)
		else F = 1
	P	Poison Length Reduced by X%	P = X
	E	-X% Enemy Poison Resistance	E = X

Ideally damage is calculated measuring rate in 1/256ths and length in frames. It's also possible to calculate damage measuring rate in poison damage/second and length in seconds. However, the result will only be an approximation and rounding down should only be done at the end of the calculation for maximum accuracy.
If a single item has both a prefix and a suffix applying poison damage, then the rates and lengths of both are simply added.
Gems, jewels and runes all count as separate items, even if they're socketed in a single item.
Item and Venom rate are only added to the skill rates of Poison Dagger and the javelins (but not the clouds) of Poison Javelin and Plague Javelin. Character screen does not display total poison damage correctly when skill, item and Venom rates combine: it correctly calculates total poison damage from items and Venom, but then simply adds this to skill damage.
+% PSD isn't applied to item and Venom rate when applied by ranged attacks.
Length is calculated differently when multiple items applying poison damage are used with skills that apply less than 100% weapon damage.
- Poison length = [sum of lengths / (sources - 1) ]
  - Multiple Shot
  - Strafe
  - Blade Sentinel using one-handed weapon
  - Blade Fury using one-handed weapon
- Poison length = sum of lengths
  - Blade Sentinel using two-handed weapon
  - Blade Fury using two-handed weapon

+*[[Skill]] level is set when the player uses the skill: adding or removing [[skill bonus]]es won't have any effect on rate or length if there's a delay between using the skill and applying poison damage.
+*While skills are normally treated as separate sources of poison damage whose rates (and accompanying lengths) compete with those of other skills and [[item]]s, [[Poison Dagger]] and the [[javelin]]s (but not the clouds) of [[Poison Javelin]] and [[Plague Javelin]] combine skill damage rate with any item rates added to [[attack]] [[damage]]; the length for which this combined rate is applied is calculated by summing skill and item lengths, and dividing by the number of items.

-===Skill and items===
-*While most skills are treated as separate sources of poison damage whose rates (and accompanying lengths) compete with those of other skills and items, Poison Dagger and the javelins (but not the clouds) of Poison and Plague Javelins combine the skill's rate with any item rates. Length is calculated by summing skill and item lengths and dividing by the number of items. [http://www.theamazonbasin.com/d2/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=47704&view=findpost&p=514063]
+*If the only item used were {{Ub|=Blackbog's Sharp Cinquedeas}}, 9824-10220 rate for 590 ((250+340)/1) frames would apply 22,641-23,553 poison damage over 23.6 (590/25) seconds. Although the rate is lower with only one item, the length can be significantly longer and results in far more damage from a single stab.
+*{{Warn|=Character screen does not display total poison damage correctly when skill and item rates combine: it simply adds total poison damage from items to skill damage.}} [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/122723-poison-dagger-and-the-character-screen/&do=findComment&comment=1526667]
