How does Knight Slayer Work?

Chelister

So I am starting to farm this set and was wondering if anyone can explain how does it work

It says: Your fully-charged Heavy Attacks against Players deal and additional 9% of their Max Health as Oblivion Damage.

So for example my targets max health is 50k
First tick (completed heavy attack) will do 8% of 50k which is 4000
Will the next tick do 8% from again the 50k or from 46k?
If the former, then each of my heavy attacks will basically deal 4k damage to an enemy with 50k health, right?

Max health meaning the initial health pool of an enemy when undamaged or will the 8% be adjusted to whatever is left after each consecutive tick?

Each heavy attack against a 50k Health player while wearing Knight Slayer would do 4500 points of damage (9% of 50,000) in addition to the heavy attack damage.
