To Stam Theorycrafters: vMA DW Currently Broken

theamazingx

Currently, every tick of Poison Injection will consume the Cruel Flurry buff. This probably has something to do with the change that has PI recalculate it's damage every tick. Already reported, but wanted to let people know as it's not something easily noticed, has a severe impact on maelstrom rotations, and I'm sure others are testing the viability of a vma rotation now that they can be enchanted.

Edit: sidenote, also found that aslyum dw is broken, does literally nothing right now, though I only tested perfect daggers.

Asylum DW worked for me yesterday

Keep in mind that you need to have Bladecloak, Lacerate or Twin Shlashes already running. If you cast a Tornado when these Dots / Buffs are running it will add the 8/10 secs to the duration of Bladecloak, lacerate and Twin Shlashes

Actually vMA DW arent that much in use on Stambuilds atm since you cannot sustain them properly in PVE (dunno about PVP)

This was listed as a known issue in the patch notes that fixed PI execute. Guess it's low priority if it's not fixed in CWC update.
