I'm no alchemist (as I never could find a point), but I imagine the strongest poison you'd probably be able to make maybe does like 200-300 damage. While this seems like a lot of damage, as low as a Bandit Highwayman already surpasses 300 total health. This means you'd still need to use multiple poisons to kill a single target. This will lead to using a ton of poisons to clear a dungeon. Afterwards you need to replenish your supply, and no one sells poisons at the level you need, so you have to go out and find all the ingredients again to create your 100's of poisons.

As a gameplay style, it simply isn't advisable as to how tedious and high maintenance it is. I can't see anyway to improve it however other than as I said to include more harmful items to use, such as Exploding Spiders. ;D
