Qucksilver poisoning

I think something should be done about this wound. Currently it doesn't add anything interesting into the game, only encourages alt usage.
And here I should apologize for my spelling... But I won't! Deal with it :P

There is quite a difference. Bee sting isn't permanent.

Yep, but this is also a stupid (and frequent, importantly) injury from scratch, which encourages alt usage.

I can live with be stings and jellyfish bites, they are can heal over night, no big deal. But I definitely will make an alt for working with mercury.

Or 10 alts for each area of, erm, expertise. As most players do.

PS glad to see you guys are still playing, my HS haven't changed :)

Bee bites heal for a long time. Example: I collected honey from two beehives and one wax. Result: Beesting -6, -6, -3, -3. Senseless damage.

Just seems odd there isn't an item to prevent it. Like holding a lit bee smoker item or something.

I actually like the idea of dangerous substances. Some substances shouldn't be handled without risks, and this isn't the only permanent damage that can only be cured by ancient roots.
