How to Use Venomous Fang

Scales with Dexterity and Strength

The Venomous Fang scales with both Dexterity and Strength but it is mainly a Dexterity-based weapon. Leveling up this stat will increase the amount of physical damage it can do and the Prosthesis-Wearer Heirloom can further increase the damage of your attacks by raising your Dexterity.

The default scaling of this weapon can be improved or altered to better scale with your attributes by using whetblades.

Has a Passive Poison Buildup

The physical attacks of this weapon cause Poison to buildup and enemies affected by it will continuously take damage during the duration of the status effect. The talisman Kindred of Rot's Exultation and headwear Mushroom Crown are good supplementary equipment that will increase the damage of your physical attacks when Poison is applied to either you or enemies.

You can use a Black Whetblade to improve the buildup rate by changing the affinity to Poison and additional status effects such as Hemorrhage or Frost can complement the passive of the weapon.

Infusable with Ashes of War
