— In-game description

Notes

• Actual damage equation is: 320 + (0.033 * Power). The damage portion is not affected by target armor.
• When venoms are applied on allies, healing is based on the allied player's healing power.
• Contrary to what the description suggests, every hit in an attack that targets multiple foes can leech life provided the player has enough venom stacks.
• Spider Venom granted by this trait do not stack with Spider Venom utility skill.
