I am currently trying to make a character who's fighting invloves using lots of poison and then hiding. I looked at the BoVD and the DMG only to find out that poisons are expensive, hard to make, rarely sold and only last on a weapon for one attack.Although, I am willing to have my character spend lots of time making poisons. Is there any way to make poisons that venom will last on a blade longer? or an easier way to obtain poisons?

Create spells that create poisons.

Harvest poison from creatures.

Create spells that enhance the DCs of poison.

Convince your DM to use that rule.

but is there a way to create poisons faster and/or in more abundance? Spending a week for an attack or two seems not very rewarding. Also, is there any feats that will help with poisons or creating them?

My character is not a spellcaster.

Suck it up--magic makes things faster and more reliable.
