Uniques/Main Hand/Widow's Portion

Widow's Portion is a Demon Unique staff with no boss attached: any drop at Threat 15 or higher can turn out to be it, and at that Threat 0.6% of what falls comes up Unique. It is built on Polished Nightshade Staff — step 4 of the Nightshade Staff line, item level 45 and up.

It always rolls the same numbers: +23 Power, +9% Poison Damage, +9% Poison Damage, +60 Maximum Health, +40% Venom Effect, +19% Power and +40% Poison Damage.

On top of that it carries Widow's Portion — A Venomed enemy's death spreads its Venom to nearby enemies.

It is Demon Gate loot.

Wearing it hands you Spirit Seed and Grand Convergence.

“Served once, at the end of a very long marriage.”
