    ZullivanHNI have tried to do this achievement when I finish the game 100% and I can't do it, maybe it's a bug for the Xbox series X, but the achievement doesn't come out even dying poisoned and dropping the rune.

    To unlock the Poison Ability you have to play the Mainstorymission called "The Outcasts". The Mission gets her relatively early in the Game. It can be found in the Northwest of the first Map.

    After you unlocked the Poison Ability, you need a Feast. A Feast is one of many random Events. Random Events appears on your Map as red Symbols.

    Do not have a Feast as random Event on your Map then scroll over a Forge Tower and use "Advance Time" to forward the Time. Go to a Feast Location and start the Mission, you must not be dected if you poison the Grog Barrel! If you detected, quit the Game and restart the Feast.

    HOW TO SET IT UP
    Before you can play "Feasts", you have to complete the story mission "The Outcasts" to get the poison ability. One of the easiest feasts to do this is "Gorfel the Thirsty". The feasts show up randomly and you might have to use the ADVANCE TIME (press cn_Y on map tower) a couple of times until it shows up.

    IMPORTANT
    Don't get spotted. If you do, this feast will disappear. To prevent this, you can quit out of the game and load it up again and the mission will still be there.

    After you successfully poisoned the bowl cn_RB, walk away and wait until the Captain drinks from it.
