Did a quick test on this, it procs on each hit of rapid strikes, so would assume the same for jabs.
It doesn't proc on dots, only the initial hit.
wtf kind of test is this man. JABS isnt a wep ability.
and it DOES proc on dots.
are u on ps4 or somth?
if you read the thread ur posting in you would get all the answers.

When you say RM is better than viper "BY A LARGE MARGIN" do you mean like 20% increase overall dps or 2%? I see many screens with RM test but I don't see the comparison with VO. (i'm no pretending of course!).
Thanks for the testing.

I've applied only claw/rending slash/endless hail/poison injection, then sit still and block, re-apply dots when they run out and repeat. 1 minute later and only 1 RM proc.
Edit: this was on pts 2.5.4

Tested RM a bit last night in both PVE and PVP and can confirm it does proc from DoTs. I had it proc on the DoT from Poison Injection, Hail and Rending Slashes (as well as random hits on Rapid Strikes). You won't see RM tick from Jabs / Claw because it only procs on Weapon abilities.

There are other sets that proc similar damage but the uniqueness of this one if sire damage, and of course its proc will perform a bit better than the others when used by a DK because of his passive. I don't see enough DK's anyways (stamina or magica, especially stamina based).
Since it is fire based I don't see how this set can be more powerful than other ones for the other classes.

I have been lurking this thread since you first created it. And as a console player, you have peaked my interest enough to try RM out (especially since I have a Dark Elf stam DK and am not sure if I want to invest in a race change {already have to pay for two other toons, a third is pushing the purse strings}).
That said, you may want to reconsider your aggressive response to someone else who is simply testing as well. You are here to share your test results and opinion. Why get angry just because someone else doesn't accept your tests at face value and does their own test and shares their own results?!
Why Jabs? Well, why not? There are many Stamplars out there who may be wondering about the proc rates with their primary spammable. So what if it isn't a weapon ability? ZOS has never been clear on what constitutes a melee attack or other vaguely defined tool-tips. And in the case of RM, it says weapon 'attack' vice weapon 'ability'. It may or may not proc via physical contact with weapons, as jabs does, just the same as via light or heavy attacks. So what if he wants to test it or is simply curious.
And so what if he reports having different test results about it proc'ing on DoTs? That is his test result. If you are concerned about his findings, ask about how he tested it and how he came to that conclusion. Or, run another test yourself and upload a video with conclusive evidence of it proc'ing on DoTs.
As for your comment "are you on PS4 or somth?" (1) The DLC isn't live on console, so no, the individual would not be on PS4 or somth. (2) Are you inferring that a console player is incapable of conducting tests or coming to some sort of conclusion? Yes, consolers lack the add-ons that do provide valuable input in tests like these, but if you think yourself better than consolers just because of add-ons or PC Masterrace, then I guess I could understand the aggressive reaction, bruised ego, or loss of manhood at having someone else post conflicting test results.

Thanks for the testing.
VO is definitely bis and doesn't need to be tested, so its basically TBS vs RM, I've done solo test on RM with stam dk and its basically 3-3.5k dps on total parse, which is comparable to TBS in theory.
But it doesn't proc on dots apart from initial hit, so for a dk with 70% dps in dots, it doesn't really help much.
With stam sorc for example where rapid strike dominates the parse, RM may end up being better.
I love how this guy tries to create a hype around a mediocre set while having bought all the cheap pieces and relisted them for absurd prices.

During dps tests and calculations they seem very similiar, but it seems RM in average is slightly stronger, especially in non-buffed situations. It is hard to measure RM and TBS cause its a proc vs static dmg increase. This also means that RM can proc in situations where TBS would never do as much dmg, say on a target with just poison injection on it, or when you are running for ur life while ur volley alone is still proccing tons of dmg on mobs. Sometimes if ur unlucky RM could have a low proc rate and might not proc at all. That said, no matter the outcome of new calculations, red mountain, tbs and VO are now the best stam sets. Without VO you can run tbs + red mountain which is absolutely lovely cus the shadow and thief boon increases dmg and crit rate of the flame proc.
Set picture:
During testing it seems to have somewhere close to 2 sec cooldown. This makes the set balanced. Looks like you cannot proc on multiple targets at the exact same time. It still procs more than any other set I've seen.
Procs on weapon ability dots, volley, poison dots, everything related to your weapon skills.
TRIKLOPS insane dps with RM:
VIPER VS RED MOUNTAIN (UPDATED)
Red Mountain is clearly waaay better in situations where there are more than 1 mob cus it procs off steel tornado, acid spray, poison injection dots and volley. Also supreme with a good rotation where you have volley, poison dots and bleed up at all times. It's also a better set in situations where you gotta dodge attacks, self heal or block cus it procs on ur dots while u do so. When you need to use bow or ranged attacks it is ofc supreme to Viper that only procs close combat melee.
Viper beats Red Mountain only in some situations when you do not have all ur dots up and are smashing at someone up close single target, and just barely.

HEL RA NORMAL (TEST SETUP WITH VIPER + RM BAD TRAITS BAD ROTATIONS just to see the difference)

The biggest downside to it is that the fire damage does not scale with stamina, weapon crit, weapon damage, which the Viper does. I do hear that a lot of people use Red Mountain and Viper together in PvP with crit rush.
I will say that after seeing this I'm definitely going to get a full set and test it out.
If you read all posts here ull see it stomps viper completely.

In your setup that's the case, but when I use viper it gets the same dps as your red mountain set.

Looking at your logs
Single Target Viper > Red Mountain
AOE Red mountain > Viper
Well, guards in Wrothgar do have 10m HP, but they also use bash, so you need to block (thus lose time, makes parses unreliable, etc).
Or grab a tank, that might be something.
More on topic, I feel like RM is too similar to Viper to warrant its place as new BiS (and Viper is just not good enough).
WTB actual DPS dummy.

Seems like a decent set in pvp (not as good as viper though, since you won't have 3-4 DoTs running on your opponent at all times) and a viable one in pve.
Can anyone test if merciless charge procs RM? I doubt it, but it is initiated by a weapon attack, even if it's not the source of the DoT.

What addon do you use for the research indicators in red at the bottom of the set!?!?!?!?
Although I can't play the game atm this topic wouldn't let me rest so I looked deeper into it and have to admit now my calculation was wrong (shame on me ).
So theoretically I agree this set should be BiS, 8k base damage every 2 seconds should give insane DPS, but on the other hand these screens look quite underwhelming 1.6-2.2k seems way too low to me although it's elemental damage. Even on the very nice parse it only procs every ~4 seconds.
So theirs a few possible reasons that came to my mind:
Does it scale with Armor or Spellpentration?
Is there a long animation involved that slows down the proc?
Does it scale with Precise Strikes or Elfborn?
As I said I can't test stuff out myself atm but I'll try in a week when I'm back home.
