You can still read the ''Poison Damage'' from the ''Documentation'' even if it's outdated, scorpion blade doesn't follow the general rules about poison damage. The exemple with the gloves + scorpion blade is still revelant.

No, it's not relevant, scorpion blade was changed and now does spell poison damage. The question was whether the clouds stack.

No sure what you are talking about, the only change to scorpion blade in Sigma is this --> SCORPION BLADE: damage reduced by 30%, now gains an extra projectile every 4 base levels of MkIV, up from 3.

It is outdated for the Sigma changes not for the changes before Sigma.
I gave you information about scorpion blade when it was changed to become an active poison skill so yes it is still revelant.

Edit : Maybe I'm wrong I don't know but at the same time I played a tiefling scorpion blade + limpet assassin before Sigma so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

If you read it, you'd see that active poison damage is not affected by % spell damage for missiles, when clearly the current scorpion blade is. Try equipping any poison damage item, it won't add to the duration or damage much. Scorpion blade used to be active damage, before it was changed to the clouds that it is now.

Yes, it applies on every strike, making it quite good with anything that hits a lot.

a few other short questions^^ what is K3K and is there an infinite stash for median?

K3K is the Rift - Kurast 3000 BA. You need to be level 115 to enter. There is no infinite stash for sigma.

The unique will be the tier of the item you use, 1 through 4.

There is 2 part to scorpion blade and poison cloud isn't a missile, Sigma didn't change that part.
Treat the 1st part as a ''projectile'' and the 2nd part as a ''spell''. Attack speed will affect your throwing speed but cast spell will have no impact on the cloud tick rate. I know it's a confusing skill but you might have to wait an update if you can't trust me telling you that you aren't looking properly at the wiki info.

How do I get a xis rune?

scorpion blade is a %WDM thrown skill that bursts into a poison spell cloud, but there's a weird mechanic on it that allows the poison spell cloud to stack.

How do I trade TG for items? and how come it shows here afterwards?

Do I put a post in the trade forum? and then?

If you're trying to buy or sell an item, you post I the trade section. If you have no TG you won't be buying anything. Very rarely will anybody take a trade. One exception would be a +2 Demonsbane.

When using the speedcalc tool with a barbarian using a 2 handed sword with a shield (so using a 2h sword but it's in one hand) do I use the "2 handed sword" calculations or the "1h swing" calc?

I ask again, how in the fuck do you get an xis rune, dosent say anywhere.
