Toxic Torment

Overview

The Toxic Torment is the premier Soulreaper poison build. It stacks poison and debuffs on enemies that tick for increasing damage. Poison Catalyst ensures poisoned enemies take bonus damage from all sources. The new Plague capstone spreads poison across enemies and even across battles. Malice amplifies all damage per debuff type.

Expertise Path

Stack Soulreaper tags. Poison skills, Arcflare skills, Weaken, and Soul skills all give Soulreaper. The debuff-stacking kit naturally pushes you toward 5+ tags.

Strategy Tips

• The debuff stack is everything: Poison + Weaken + Slow + Hex Curse. Malice amplifies ALL damage by 12% per type.
• Plague spreading across battles means your poison investment carries forward.
• Rotweave bridges arcflare and poison, letting you apply multiple debuffs per action.
• Frostblight adds freeze → poison → slow chain for even more Malice stacks.

Tier Rating: B

Poison is weak in the current meta. DoT damage is outpaced by bolt and knife burst. The debuff stacking with Malice is interesting but requires too many turns to pay off. Most fights are decided before poison builds reach their potential.
