Poison Charms Canceling Deadly/Crit?

Poison Charms Canceling Deadly/Crit?

I heard from a friend recently that poison charms cancel out deadly/critical strike. Is there any validity to this?

I think its a caomplete farse because crit/deadly only effects physical damage and has nothing to do with elemental, as far I was was aware the physical damage was dealt before any elementals were taken into effect.

 

It's a total farce. There are only a couple of reasons I can think of for the confusion:

Someone slapped 40 poison charms on their zon and noticed that their damage seemed to go down.

People who consider poison bad manners perpetuated the rumor to stop people from using it.

 

psn dmg doesn't cancel cs or anything else for that matter
i don't know who invented that rumor but it's stupid and a lot of ppl have absorbed it for some reason
