Fenix has you beat on this one... If you're poisoned, you expect to be weaker, hence the drop in Str/Dex/Con. And if you want to counteract the speed drop, simply carry less weight with you. And their are many things to protect you from posion: scrolls, armor, prayers.
The only objection i have to poison remaining the same is, there are some cases where poison deducts 10! Strength, there is no counter to that, death is certain. Unless you lame with scrolls of resist/curep
. And it's not as if i'm level 20, then i'd expect to be owned, level 110... decent phys level too, and Bile, natural 47 poison resist (with glok).
Nothing should be that strong to basically make all your items you used to get 30 30 30, or woteva, utterly useless. Poisons effect should be re-looked at.
