How long have you been trying to raise it? And why is this in the merc section? Did we get some sort of poison resistance change that I didn't know about?

The poison-tolerance system was never actually introduced for the benefit of players to tip back a few Black Vials or deliberately screw up cleaning their blades.

ok so it took me a while to read this thread again.

no there isnt a new ability that im aware of. i wasnt posting for sarcastic remarks either. i was only wanting to raise my poison resistance, and was hoping to find advice from my own profession. but since the question was answered as such, guess ill go to another profession to find answers. forget the concept of individuals of a profession comming together for the purpose of sharing knowledge and improving the profession. lets just take cheap shots at each other. or maybe im just so fully emboding the essense of a merc a lil to much.

and despite how the system was designed, thats how it works. and considering mercs have the edge on attack, it would only seem logical to improve the defenses to balance the scale.

thanks anyway, ill figure it out on my own.

Um, my remark wasn't sarcastic. Sorry if you took it as such. You didn't get any responses because nobody knows, not because we refuse to share knowledge or whatever. In any case, I think the system got changed so stabbing yourself with a poisoned kninfe all day doesn't improve your res. much.

If I remember correctly, the system was changed for the very same reason as your question. It was meant to be something that happened ocassionally so they were pretty generous with how much resistance you would gain per exposure. But people were chugging bottles and licking knives (not really, but I like to exaggerate Twisted Evil ) to raise it at a quicker pace than they had intended on.

apologies for the tones taken. just many answers and no info seemed sarcastic.

but i think ive actualy figured out a way to raise it at a standard pace, no its not any faster than chuggin was, but its still steady none the less. to sum up in one word, Sshliss.

Well, I can't hunt those yet...and I need some way to improve it. Anything, create a new lower level critter, something. Also, I think my poison tolerance may be wacky...not sure.

Trevor had said long ago that raising poison tolerance on player made poisons would be a long and tedious process. And that it would stop after a certain %, he never listed a number though. Though you are right too that poison based creatures will raise it quicker for you, because that is the intended method to raise it if I remember correctly.

Then why are you asking the questiong if you already knew that potions and knife cleaning would stop teaching poison tolerance? You have reached the cap you can learn with potions which is why they they stopped working.

no actualy, i have learned more, and its not that it stopped, its just i had to find another source. and yes, its still on the drinking/cleaning/apply'n. Shocked

again, no actualy, ive not reached my cap.. Very Happy

twice we assumed and both times were weighed, measured, and found wanting. please try to remember, the mother of all screw ups is an assumption, and please keep the breeding to a bare minimum. Laughing

if all this vast knowledge that is assumed, was put onto a website, then there wouldnt need to have needless posts as the thread i started. yet woe is me, the knowledge isnt public, so i must ask.

Yeah, Kelasa, you asshole. Why don't you read his mind and put answers to random things up on your site before the issues arise? It's a simple task, really, just know what questions people have before they ask them (you can gain this knowledge through mind reading, or other supernatural and nonexistant methods), and then answer them in your free time. Goddamn.

Seriously, though, I don't know what knowledge you're talking about. All she assumed is that you hit your poison resist cap, and that is public knowledge. Well, the fact that there's a resist cap is public knowledge, the actual number isn't.
