Damage per second
Skill Damage per second + Dexterity damage

Example ,100 Dexterity

Dexterity damage: 100 × 150% = 150,

Damage per second: 450 + 150 = 600

Rounded means to the nearest whole number. Exact halves go to the even number, so 2.5 becomes 2.

Resist Chance

Each point of the target's Poison Resist adds 0.05% to its chance to resist this debuff. Each 1% of the caster's Accuracy subtracts 1% from that chance. Each level the target is above the caster adds 0.5%, and each level below subtracts 0.5%, up to 10% either way. The chance stays between 0% and 90%. See resistance and avoidance.

The target's Poison Resist reduces each damage tick by 0.05% per point, up to 90%. See damage-over-time calculations.

Immune to Debuffs does not stop this debuff.
