Poison

Not to be confused with Toxic.

Effect

Once the Poison meter is full, HP will begin to drain at a steady rate depending on the method of infliction. Duration is always 3 minutes and is not affected by Poison Resist.

Inflict

These Enemies are capable of poisoning the player by dealing the listed poison buildup, which when triggered drain HP at the corresponding rates listed. The rate at which these poison status effects apply damage was altered with the Remaster, differentiated here from PTDE. For example, in the Remaster with enemy inflicted poison, damage is applied once per 0.927 seconds, but the amount of damage dealt per tick and duration for which it lasts is unaltered , leading to higher damage rates and total damage:
