Dark souls 2 poison arrows take 4 to 8 hits to poison...
Dark souls 3 poison arrows take an inconceivable amount of hits until the enemy is either dead before poisoning and/or "ds3 poison arrows" is google searched.Dark souls 2 lets you carry 999 off any ammo at a time
Dark souls 3 lets you carry 99 arrows/bolts, 30 greatarrowsDs2 definitely has its merits, despite its many MANY flaws. I had much much more fun using ranged in ds2. Id like ds3 bows and xbows better if they felt like they did in ds2.

Simply amazing, by simply firing 40 of these things into an enemy and waiting another 2 minutes you could almost deal the same amount of damage as 8 exploding arrows.

I have an endurance build (ouch). So I hoped those arrows could be useful, but not really... Even in NG+0, that was very difficult to induce poison to Gael, who is very sensitive to this status. And it doesn't build up poison fast enough without the weapon art "rapid fire". All other bosses are resistant or immune to poison, except crystal sage but you don't need poison to kill him. And greatwolf, but good luck to apply poison with these arrows...

I really, really, cant accept that the poison build up of these arrows dont scale with luck. First they designed the thief as the luck build, and is the only character starting with a bow, but any of them have a luck scaling… Second, ALL the weapons have actually a hidden luck attribute, we know that because when you Apply bleed or poison resins, it scales with your luck, which would be impossible without a hidden luck attribute. SO why not the bows? and crossbows for bleed? WHy associate bows to a luck build? And i dont even talk about the fact that frost doesnt' scale with frost.. Why introduce a new alteration, if we cant play with it like the other? BUt we have a staff scaling with luck??? So the assassin should have start with a bow, and the thief with a staff...

Took 43 poison arrows to poison old demon king while the summon can poison him instantly. Waste of souls.

The poison triggered by this thing is special. It lasts 180 seconds, decreasing hp by 0.07*maxhp+3 each second. The effects of other poison sources except the staff one last 90 seconds, hp-=0.07*maxhp+7 per sec.

if you manage to apply poison with these the poison tick will only do 3 damage vs 7 damage if applied with a weapon or pine resin

After shooting more than 20 arrows into the Champion's Gravetender I have come to the conclusion that these are troll items sold by patches to people too lazy to use a proper poisoning method.

Unfortunately, these didn't get the poison build up buff that most other weapons got... not very useful for building poison, even when using the rapid fire from the shortbow/composite bow. Better to just use rotten pine resin on a weapon and poison things that way.

Tried using these against the Hawkwood fight. Dude looked like a pin-cushion but still didn't get poisoned.

Just like bleed you need luck stats to make it more effective i guess

Completely useless against most enemies, since you need to put like 6-10 arrows to start poison, which takes around 3 health per tick.

So far these haven't poisoned ANYTHING successfully. I've shot 3-6 times in quick succession, depending on the mob, and poison effect never occurs. Does anyone know where in the game Poison Arrows are actually useful?I'm about to kill the final boss.
