Game Mechanics: Apply Poison

[Pyrocat]

Fails way way way more often than it should.

From ye olde Safehouse Forums:

Does my apply skill affect how long my poison lasts?
Uncertain. After reading accounts from a number of people, I'm inclined to say no. But no definitive testing has been done on this. Generally the only established information about the apply skill is that once you get over 100, you will very rarely fail to apply a poison.

When I hit (100) in Apply Poison I was still failing more often than applying. I'm at a higher skill now, don't recall off the top of my head, and I'm still failing about 30% of the time.
