'''Enchant Deadly Poison''' is the signature damage steroid of the [[Assassin Cross]]. It consumes a bottle of Deadly Poison to lace the weapon, massively raising physical damage for a limited time. Reworked on Vortex Legends with a duration that shrinks as the level rises.

== Overview ==
Enchant Deadly Poison trades resources for raw power: each cast costs a brewed Deadly Poison bottle and a heavy chunk of SP, and the stronger you make it, the shorter it lasts. Level 5 delivers the biggest damage spike in the Assassin arsenal, but only for 100 seconds, while level 1 gives a smaller boost that lasts five minutes. Choosing the level to cast is a real decision rather than an automatic max.

== Mechanics ==
* '''Damage bonus:''' +(200 + 30 × SkillLv)% physical damage while active.
* '''Poison edge:''' physical attacks gain a 25% Poison-element damage bonus. This does not stack with similar weapon-element effects such as Magnum Break's.
* '''Deadly Poison on hit:''' attacks have a (3 + SkillLv)% chance to inflict Deadly Poison, a stronger version of Poison.
* '''Duration:''' 350 − 50 × SkillLv seconds; higher levels burn brighter and shorter.
* The buff cannot be removed by Dispell.

== Leveling ==
{| class="wikitable"
! Level !! Damage bonus !! Deadly Poison chance !! Duration
|-
| 1 || +230% || 4% || 300s
|-
| 2 || +260% || 5% || 250s

|-
| 4 || +320% || 7% || 150s
|-
| 5 || +350% || 8% || 100s
|}

== Notes ==
The negative duration scaling rewards planning: level 5 before a boss burn or a PvP engage, lower levels for long farming runs where uptime matters more than peak damage. While active, [[Locked-On]] doubles its bonuses, making the pairing the core of Assassin Cross burst windows.
