So, I thought Less Duration was supposed to affect poison and bleed duration.

The base damage per second dealt by a given application of poison equals 10% of the combined physical and chaos damage dealt by the hit which applied that particular instance of poison.[1]

As a damage over time effect, poison's damage can be affected positively or negatively by some damage stats. Notably, stats modifying spell damage and attack damage do not apply to poison as poison is not a spell or attack.[4] The following stats will directly affect the damage of poison; note that some of these stats apply only to the poison whereas some may also apply to the skill that triggered it:

Damage over Time
Poison Damage
Damage
Chaos Damage
Area Damage if applied by an Area skill[5][6]
Projectile Damage if applied by a Projectile skill[1]
Trap Damage if applied by a Trap
Mine Damage if applied by a Mine
Totem Damage if applied by a Totem
Minion Damage if applied by a Minion

As Voidheart is causing the poison/bleed, only the first 4 apply.

Please add your testings to the OP, because if correct that's good baseline material for GGG.

Did you try grabbing a duration cluster from the passive tree btw?

Anyhow, if it doesn't function like i explained it, then it is probably bugged and you might do well to make a bug report in the appropriate section.

Good luck with getting this sorted.

Peace,

Mark, thanks for this thread. My question is about the duration of bleed and poison from items. I'm using snakebite gloves that inflict poison when at max frenzy charges. Can the poison duration be increased by Increased Skill Effect Duration passives? What are the default durations of bleed and poison from items? Here is a post where testing didn't seem to match what the wiki says for the default durations: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1678470

Edit: Also, does the more damage multiplier from the frenzy charges apply to the poison damage over time or just to the hit that poisons?

Thanks!

Well, I think it's safe to extrapolate my finding on Voidheart's poison into assuming Snakebite's would be affected in the same manner.


As for the frenzy charges, yes, the 'more damage' is supposed to affect DoT effects, which would mean they double-dip for poison/bleed/ignite.

Mark, thanks for this thread. Since you haven't yet responded to my question, I've modified the way I asked it. Hope that doesn't pose a problem.

My question is about the duration of bleed and poison from items. I'm using snakebite gloves that inflict poison when at max frenzy charges. Here is a post where testing didn't seem to match what the wiki says for the default durations: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1678470. Can you please clarify the base durations for bleed and poisons including distinctions if it matters what the source is (besides the obvious modified durations from Puncture and Viper Strike)?

And here is another thread where testing seemed to show inconsistencies with duration modifiers: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1698604. It looks like Increased Duration Support increases poison duration but Less Duration Support does not lessen it. I guess in summary my question is: Is the duration of bleed and poison attached to skills via items supposed to be modifyable by passives and/or gems supporting the skill that applied the bleed/poison?

Thanks!
