how does lengthen poison work on a sword for a warrior that has no apply poison or implement poison skills? Does it do nothing at all or does it somehow have a percentage to actually apply poison?

you have access to your secondary's skills. thus, a w/r with apply poison would make use of such a mod.

are you trying to say that theres a 33% to apply poison or just lengthen? Im not a ranger 2nd, so I cant apply poison.

So all the weapons with lengthen poison do no good unless your character is part ranger?

it lengthens duration by 33%. and yes, the mod is useless unless you have a skill that applies poison using your weapon.

Or other poisoning class.

But no - The mod only Lengthens already existing poisonings. It does not poison them on its own.

That is correct. Poison can't be lengthened if it is never applied

Not entirely sure if your target is already poisoned from something else, that striking them with a lengthen poison weapon will increase duration ... can someone else confirm? Does it work for your own poison only?

My admittedly limited testing indicates that it only works with poison you applied directly and with your weapon. (For the curious I tested with a R/N, first using Poison Arrow with a Poisoner's bow equipped, then testing Chilblains/Plague Touch with the same bow equipped).
