Default Snake ring and touch attacks

A snake ring's effect stacks with life drain attacks?

If so, what other effects would it stack with?

Also, what other items might stack like this?

I.

The snake ring gives the wielder the item spell "poison touch", it doesn't actually give the wielder an extra attack.

There are some items that add extra attacks and stack, from what I recall that they (besides direct weapons) are the chi shoes, dancing trident, astral serpent, stone bird, and the horned helmet.

If you have the quickness buff/heroic quickness the additionl items will also strike another time.

Stupid memes


I guess he means that the ring becomes an extra attack when you attack with 0 length weapons, but I don't think that's true.

do the quickness buffs stack?

If you have water blessing + boots of quickness + heroic ability + quickness spell and all those items and gladiator's gloves or that one trident that attacks 3 times would you get a couple dozen attacks?

Bless and heroic quickness will stack with other forms, but only one instance of a spell will work, and jade armor and quickness boots both "cast" the spell on the user. Weapons with multiple attacks stack perfectly well, although you can only attack a single square per *action*, so if you have 12 attacks you can still only kill 3 militia with them. Quickness allows you to have more than one action per turn though, so you can clear out multiple squares at that point.

I have no idea if multiple quickness effects add or multiply though. Anyone care to test? =)

Heroic quickness, blessed quickness, and the quickness spell stacked in Dominions 2. I'm relatively certain that they still stack in Dominions 3. So, it was entirely possible to have 200% heroic quickness on an ice devil, cast quicken self, and then attack four or more times per turn. This is when life draining weapons are at their best of course.
