Plalm Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 you want every tick available to go off per application of the bleed. If you reapply before the last tick you lose those number of ticks. The time between your last tick and your next application is made up by the initial damage before the ticks. In another MMO, it was changed so that reapplying a dot will carry over the next tick. That is not the case in this game. Reapplying too soon is short changing your dps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibaken Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) Rupture (and by extension Deadly Saber) do X damage over Y seconds. Most people will assume that this means X damage every second for Y seconds, but it doesn't. Rupture (and DS) tick for a flat amount over time and therefore, if clipped, will not do its damage per Rage. If Rupture ticked for X damage every Y second for Z seconds, you could reapply it between the second to last and last tick (because all DoTs in ToR, to my knowledge, do one last tick as they wear off) and keep the buff running without worrying about losing any damage.
