Ash of War: Poisonous Mist

Poisonous Mist soaks your weapon in poison, then a slash sends a cloud of toxic mist out in front of you. The blade stays poisoned for a while afterwards, so your normal hits keep building poison too.

It grants the Poison affinity and fits almost any melee weapon. Poison scales with Arcane, so it suits status builds that like to let damage tick away.
