      Must have ring for poison, it'll pretty much double the poison scaling you get from 40-50 dex if the weapon is infused with poison. With poison spotted whips it isn't that insane of a % increase but it's still +120 on power stance.

        This Ring+Sanctum Knight Gauntlets+Poison Infused Black Scorpion Stinger+50 Dex= If they run. Simply hound them until the poison gets them, and the constant damage just gives you their last known location. Making tracking easier. Basically a decent hunter build if you are sick of runners, usable by both duelists and trolls. (note the spotted whip is technically better, I just prefer the stinger.)

          The Rat king will not get a gravestone and can there for not be summoned after being killed.
          I messed up my poison build totally, I forgot to remove my moon butterfly set before talking to him...
