> You're saying "18 stacks from 1 skill" Are you implying that the engi hit you with 2 poison nades? (9 x 2 = 18). If so the scenario you laid out is impossible. 10.25 seconds of poison with 34% poison duration on a 25 second cooldown.

Asuming he didn't have help from another player, He would have either had to land several skills on you (one of which involves running an underperforming weapon in the mainhand) or you stood in 2 poison fields and ate the poison nade.

Thats the beauty if it! I don't know! I got hit by poison grenade point blank and might stayed 1sec max in it! He was not using pistol main hand too!
