*Player and [[mercenary]] normally have a ceiling of PLR 75%, although any excess can offset penalties that might otherwise reduce it below this ceiling. [[Difficulty]] level penalties of PLR -40% in Nightmare and PLR -100% in Hell (-20% and -50% respectively in [[Classic]] games) also apply to them.

*It is only applied whenever a new source of poison damage is applied, so removing it afterwards will have no effect on remaining length; adding it after a target is poisoned will have no effect either. [http://www.theamazonbasin.com/d2/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=76262&view=findpost&p=846646]

*It tends to be of little importance for player and mercenary because monsters don't wait for poison length to expire before reapplying it; consequently they are likely to remain poisoned throughout a battle. Afterwards, they can use an [[Antidote Potion]] or [[Shrine|Well]], or return to town to be healed, to cure themselves immediately (a player can also use a Resist Poison [[Shrine]]) and prevent poison running its full course.
