Introduction

Ah, the wonders of poison, a marvelous form of attack which allows you to stand back and witness your prey turn green and slowly wither and die. It is a glorious sight to see your enemy's life slowly slip away, powerless to change the inevitable outcome. Plus, powerful creatures are rarely resistant to its effects unlike the other elemental attacks. It's truly simple, effortless and avoids an awful lot of mess unlike lightning or ice.

I have spent my time studying the effects of this wonderful substance on the monsters of Diablo II, v1.09 and I am prepared to share my knowledge so others may embrace it as well. You will learn how toxic your strike can be, how long your prey will suffer and tips to consume the largest quantity of victims. If you strive to instill fear into your victim's hearts like Bela Lugosi, Vincent Price or Dr. Laura, listen well and take notes, my students.
