Help on boosting poison damage

[BipolarTemp]

I recently got the urge to start a poison/summon hybrid but really would like to get a hold of something to increase my poison damage a bit. I like the three pieces of Trangs bonus of +25%/-25% but I'm not sure on the values of these items. How much would, say, the gloves, shield, and belt run me? I've also heard the belt is more expensive so, if not that, what else should I use? If there's a cheaper way to get a similar 25/25 bonus to my poison damage, I'd love to know about it, but Trangs seems the easiest and most effective way to do so. So, when it comes down to it, any advice on cheaply boosting poison damage would be great. Thanks for the help.

Edit - fixed the title to be a little more appropriate to the thread.

All it takes is Chancies? Well darn, I wish I hadn't died with my 30% :grrr: I looked at Death's Web and, while it does look amazing for my build, it looks terribly expensive. I'm not the richest person in ladder. Thanks for the suggestion. Time to go look for some chancies again.

Hmmmm. Certainly not something I have laying around right now but not as bad as I might have thought. Thanks for your help - I'll start watching the trade threads! :thumbsup:

Trangs is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to get the mods you are looking for, but if funds are a bit tight you might want to consider the three parts of the set that you get. You still get the 25/25 bonus with the gloves, shield and any other item. Given that a) the belt is the most expensive item in the set and b) you are a summoner hybrid, maybe you should get the shield, gloves and armour instead, as it comes with +2 to summons as well as some other useful mods.

For values of this stuff you really should check the trade forums under you realm, checking for the appropriate hardcore/softcore, ladder/non-ladder prices, however I play Europe ladder softcore and got the gloves for about 5PGs, the Armour for about 10 and the Shield for about 15 on old ladder. 30 PGs for this amount of poison damage is darn cheap, if you ask me.

Good luck getting your stuff :thumbsup:

Well I play East, HC, Ladder, but if the prices are about the same, I can afford it soon enough. The armor idea does sound good for my skellies. Not like there are many other choices for virtually untwinked (these three items will probably be all I twink). Thanks for the suggestions.
