Best 3pp material for Poisoners?


Product Discussion


Hello all. I'm currently in the mood to try and find things that really expand on the ability to poison enemies overall in game. It's something I'd like to expand on a bit more in my games and I'd like to see what's out there that's considered good.

It can be classes, spells, gear, etc. Don't care. Just want to see what exists for poisons.


I dunno anything about 3rd party buut

Dirty tactics toolbook has some great stuff


Hey there, Sepik!

If we limit things to my catalog, you'll be looking way back to 2013's herbalist base class for poisoners. Effectively a "chaos magic druid", an herbalist doesn't channel magic, she goes out and picks plants which supercharge their natural properties thanks to her influence.

This makes the class a full divine caster who tends to use poison as her alpha strike of choice. I'd hold off on buying it presently, as it's slated for a facelift and expansion in my third hardcover book, which will Kickstart as soon as

A: the second book's PDF is out, and
B: the Kobold isn't throwing his weight around


Path of War has the Steel Serpent discipline, which is geared around poison-themed attacks. One of its 1st-level stances is called Poisoner's Stance, which grants Poison Use and increases the Save DC of used poisons.

It's all OGL, so it can be found on the D20 PFSRD.


A Necromancers Grimoire-Wonders of Alchemy has 9 or so new poisons along with some other awesomeness.

Hey septik121,
I just released Deadly Gardens, Volume 4: Ophidian Vine earlier this month. As part of the supplemental material it has rules for harvesting poisons from all venomous creatures in the Pathfinder Bestiary.

While it's not out yet, the next Kineticists of Porphrya book will actually have a poison element, complete with ways to make your own poisons through accepting burn, altering a poison's type, adding poisons to your kinetic blast, and giving you alternative ways to administer poisons.

I'm also interested in options for making poison use a more viable option for players. But revamping the pricing of poisons would seem to be a crucial part of doing this. Are there any 3pp that offer ways to revamp the prices of poisons?

While it does not change the pricing structure of poisons, the rules in Deadly Gardens Vol. 4 for harvesting poisons from monsters you defeat can essentially let you get poisons as treasure. Also there is a feat called Toxin Wrangler that lets you harvest poisons from live creatures as well.


Another great one is the advanced alchemy feat by kobold press which adds your int mob to to DC of all alchemical items you make, poison included.

These is quite a bit about poison (including a poison focused PrC) in our book, Into the Breach: the Alchemist, here is a helpful link.

This ki manipulation causes the disciple’s very energies to become a supernatural poison in and off itself.
