Can You Poison Both Melee and Ranged Weapons at the Same Time?

-

Hey everyone! Quick question for the group: Is it possible to apply poison to both melee and ranged attacks simultaneously, or do I have to choose just one at a time? I’ve never attempted to use poison on both types of attacks before, so I’m curious about how it works.

If you look closely at the tooltip in the game, it states that you’re only coating the weapon you’re currently holding. So you need to switch to the other weapon to apply a different poison. Just keep that in mind!

I get that, but I’m asking if I can coat my melee weapon first and then my ranged weapon with a different poison to have both ready to go. Also, I doubt the PS5 has tooltips.

Yep, you can actually poison both. Just make sure to switch out your active weapon before you apply the poison to the second one. It’s pretty handy!

Crazy cool! I never thought about it before, but now I want to try it. Thanks for clearing that up!
