Good day, forum!
Cannot find such the information, so asking:
1) We have item with Gematria (bonus properties per each socketed Great/Elenemtal runes)
2) Also we want to create some expensive Runeword which requires e.g. one Great rune
Question: will Gematria work at Great rune socketed in the Runeword?
Thx

Upd: Gosh, really short question. I thought Gematria will work not only with runes socketed in Gematria-piece, but in all the gear - don't ask me why, I don't know too :facepalm:
Thank you, Siosilvar :salut:

No. Gematria only counts the runes socketed in that item and you cannot create a runeword in a unique.

I played blood zon a couple seasons ago, and golden chariot was fixed mid-season back then. :)

A lot of scorpion blade assasins dont seem to include any source of +xxx poison dmg over Y seconds on their gear. Does the duration stack as other weapon poisons do (1 item source good, more "bad") or is it a special case as there are so many in D2 (-:

The Wiki / FAQ on the forum says:
"Currently trying to work out the mechanics of skills that have both a weapon poison and spell poison part. Specifically that's Scorpion Blade, Hyena Strike, and Angel of Death / Blight Descent. Seems like they might just let the entire poison scale with spell damage, not just the part added by the skill. But I have absolutely no idea how duration works for them; the poison lengths I'm seeing don't make any sense."

Wondering if in the year since this was posted an answer was found and i am simple ignorant of it or if its still an open question.

After the rework, flat weapon poisons do nothing for scorpion blade.

Ok, thank you for saving me from wasting my time / an item slot.
