ACTroyan Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) Torheads effect details show that deadly saberr has a tick rate of 3s and a duration of 6s... My question is do you get a tick immediately upon applying it? Or not untill 3s later? For instance if its dmg is applied initially it will hit for small amount from 1stack then a medium hit when u stack second and a hard 3rd as well as ticks after the last stack is applied for 6s duration OR does it just apply and wait 3s before first tick?

Altheran Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) I remember some yellow numbers showing at the same time of attacks or shortly after, so I always supposed it applied its first tick instantaneously. With a 3s time, it wouldn't be able to damage during the two first attacks and the 3s would reset if a stack is applied again which would result at waiting 7.5s before the first tick when the 3 stacks are applied in chain of 3 abilities. PS : I think the 3s time between each tick is wrong... I remember to be able to put a DoT on someone, use Berserk and escape the fight (with camouflage) and still being able to have the 6 healing procs... so logically the time between each tick should be 1s.

Karasuko Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 ACtually I'll add to this in a sidetracky fashion. How the hell do I roll my deadly saber dot? I can normally get a refresh off for the second application but I just cant get the third application to refresh the dot before it drops off. Keep in mind im only lvl 30 so i might be missing a talent that refreshes the dot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its possible torhead is wrong but u might be thinking of rupture cuz that says it ticks every sec for 6s As for the application problem... I just hope i dont have the issue... I never paid much attention to it before but i will now just to make sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
