The first is Poison Resist and the other is Poison Length Reduction. I'm pretty sure that they both affect poison length.

Unlike Cold Resist %, Poison Resist % only applies to damage, not length: thus casting Lower Resist (which applies PR -%) only increases damage, not length.

The only monsters that can have Poison Length Reduced by % are Ancients who spawn with these affixes on their magic equipment: against all other monsters, -% to Enemy Poison Resistance will increase poison length by the displayed percentage, up to a limit of -100% EPR (doubling length).

I've now updated the calculator to take account of Poison Nova's increased damage in 1.13.

Hi,onderduiker! Can you attach a xls file for those who play v1.12?
Thanks in advance!

I've uploaded the 1.12 Poison damage calculator as requested.

First off, thank you for this! Stumbled across it and it is an impressive thing =)

So I think I did this correctly lol.

This look right?

I just saw the damage at the end and was surprised @_@

Yes, that's correct. Bear in mind that Poison Nova's base damage was increased by approximately 15% in 1.13, and -% Enemy Poison Resistance not only reduces Poison Resist % of monsters not Immune to Poison but also normally increases poison length.

That calculated damage would also only be applied to monsters with PR <28%: you need to enter values in the PR % column to see how much damage would actually be applied to, say, PR 50%, 75% or 100%.

Ah okay, I totally overlooked that column. Thanks for the help =)

i was looking the poison duration of the 2/3 infernal set output of your calculator and i was surprised that showed 3.2 sec and not 1 second as the area summit stated. Anything worth?

I've double checked Sets.txt and this is the relevant information:

Code:

name            version  level  PCode2a   PParam2a  PMin2a  PMax2a
------------------------------------------------------------------
Infernal Tools        0      7  dmg-pois        80      25      25

So the Partial Set Bonus for equipping two items is 25 minimum and 25 maximum poison bit rate applied for 80 frames, resulting in 7 208/256 poison damage over 3.2 seconds (displayed as 8 Poison Damage Over 3 Seconds). The Arreat Summit lists this correctly under Complete Set Bonus for Infernal Tools, as it does with other Partial Set Bonuses for other sets, so the Partial Set Bonus is wrong (it should be 8 Poison Damage Over 3 Seconds):
