Weapon Coatings and No Metabolism

[DiscOH]

If a weapon coating carries a non metabolistic effect (Feeblemind, Vertigo etc), will it be successful against something that has no metabolism? Or does the poison rider inherently transform an effect to metabolism only?

The person struck will call "no effect" if the strike breaches their armor. Armor will still take the damage normally, since carriers do not take effect until they reach body.

I'm assuming this means that immunity to any 1 rider gives you immunity to the entire attack, and that no metabolism grants immunity to all poisons.

Can you overwrite a poison rider with an elemental/earth/chaos rider and still deliver the coating? (example: 2 feeblemind earth)

Do riders stack (example: 2 feeblemind silver poison earth)?

Carriers do not stack. If you have access to multiple carriers, you must choose one.

If you are immune to part of an attack, you are immune to all of it. The one exception is the massive carrier. (It doesn't matter if the boulder shouldn't be able to kill you... you still just got hit with a rock bigger than you.)

If you do not use a poison coating on the next swing of that weapon, it is lost.

Makes sense, thanks for the help
