==Passive Mechanics and Interactions==
Buff/Debuff duration passives and skill duration passives don't work with Adder's Touch. The poison in this case is treated as a status effect like burning, so is not affected.<ref>{{cite web|author=Mark_GGG|date=March 12, 2012|title=Adder's Touch|url=http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/21343/page/1|publisher=Path of Exile Forum|accessdate=August 13, 2014}}</ref>
 
Each hit dealt by Adder's touch replaces all previous instances of Adder's Touch. Furthermore, it also replaces the poison created by poison arrow.<ref>{{cite web|author=Mark_GGG|date=March 12, 2012|title=Adder's Touch|url=http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/21343/page/1|publisher=Path of Exile Forum|accessdate=August 13, 2014}}</ref>
 
The damage over time is applied every frame (not once every second, for example). Thus hitting multiple times within one second will still cause poison damage.<ref>{{cite web|author=Mark_GGG|date=March 12, 2012|title=Adder's Touch|url=http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/21343/page/1|publisher=Path of Exile Forum|accessdate=August 13, 2014}}</ref>
 
Elemental damage and chaos damage from the hit is included in the total damage thus increasing poison damage dealt.<ref>{{cite web|author=Mark_GGG|date=March 15, 2012|title=Adder's Touch|url=http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/21343/page/3|publisher=Path of Exile Forum|accessdate=August 13, 2014}}</ref>
