Rending slash and enchants

Does rending slashes proc main hand or off hand enchant?

    Doesn't it just proc which ever is not on cooldown?

    No, Rending Slashes will only proc the off-hand enchantment. To my knowledge, all other DW skills will only proc the main hand.

    The only ability that procs both based on cd is Light attacks who apply the enchantment of the currently swung weapon if its off CD.

    Heavy attacks only proc the main hand enchantment.

    As of PTS v3.1.1 The DW Heavy attack is bugged and does not proc any enchantment.

    As long as it's on cooldown, yes. It will not proc the Main-hand enchantment.

    Rending slashes will not proc all enchants. It does not proc weapon dmg increase enchant.

    OK, went on PTS to double check it all. You are all correct.
    • Flurry, Whirlwind, Blade Cloak and Hidden Blade will only proc the main hand enchantment.
    • Twin Slashes will only proc the off hand enchantment, but not if its the Weapon and Spell Damage enchantment.
    • Heavy Attacks procs non of the enchantments
    • The ultimate procs non of the echantments
    • Light Attacks procs both.

    This needs to be changed, all of the abilities should be able to proc all of them, but never both at the same time, and heavy attacks needs to be fixed. There are probably more enchantments that are broken with Dual Wield, will double check them all later. @ZOS_GinaBruno

    Yes. But it depends on your rotation. Are you using that ability as your main spammable?

    Reg enchantments have a 4s ICD
    Irreg enchantments (wep dam, shield, crushing) have an ICD of 10s

    Infused on the PTS reduces this ICD by 50% (Live its 40%)

    So it becomes 2s and 5s respectively. (little longer on live)

    Global skill ICD is 1s.

    Spamming slashes will proc the off-hand every other rending slashes.

    It will lower the cooldown, so you can get more procs. On live, the cooldown is lowered by 40%, next update Infused lowers it by 50%.

    My idea is to embrace the change made to viper and stack heavily into thurmaturge on my nightblade. I already light attack weave everything so I'll use a infused main with disease enchantment and a sharpened off hand with a shock enchant. This way my main hand is procing every 2 sec and my off hand will when it's time to apply rending slashes.

    Right now on live it's better to use quick cloak because for some reason it counts as a melee attack and it will proc viper, selene, and weapon enchant. It's stupid. I've put a dude at half health just from quick cloak procing once

    Why would you want to use Shock and Disease on them? Can't see any reason for that combo.
