I think having a little danger makes the game more fun. In H&H, getting knocked out by an animal often meant death.

Poison cure should cost 25s or even 50s.

If I have 250s that is 1-2 days worth of work on strictly farming for silver (indians + foraging for buyers)!
Most of the time I need that silver for something WORTH buying.

If the serium worked like 10x before it was consumed then sure i'd say its fair.

Honestly I hate being rolled back due to something retarded like what happened to me just now! (Snake just outside my claim, aggros me, I run, I get caught on my storage box, snake gets 1 hit on me; POISONED! I now have to choose to waste my entire days worth of silver or get knocked out wasting maybe 30mins - 1 hour worth of inspirationals.

The choice is obvious.

Why bother having a dumb cure that NO ONE will buy?!
Only an idiot would buy it because logically it's over priced!

SNAKES are OVERPOWERED!!!!!

Anti-venom does seem a bit expensive, though it does provide 10 uses. If might be better to have a single use anti-venom, for 50s.

You get bitten, you lose two points, you move on, and you learn to kill them. I can sympathize with your inexperience, but it's not hard in the slightest if you have any idea what you are doing. :)

Here's a new idea, kill it without getting bit, sell anti venom, laugh as you turn the tables on the snake and help others get anti venom cheaper.

It's only two points? (Have yet to be poisoned...) What, exactly, is the issue, then? You can eat a milkweed root for that.

I seem to find myself constantly trying to outrun snakes with my lowbie character... At what stage (humours) should I try to defend and attack one?

You get a debuff that constantly drains your phlegm until you get KO. If you get KO, you lose two random points worth of skills.

The key is that i don't want to kill snakes, because i will die from poison anyway (or spend much money). I agree that poison should have limited time / price of antidot should be reduced.

Yes please. Anything that debuffs you endlessly is a pain. Even if the upward limit is ridiculously high, some way to overcome it passively would be great.
