    Maybe. Though it begs the question; why are you using Shieldbreaker with a lightning staff when the set buffs Stamina?

    Why else? To hilariously troll shield stacking Sorcs.

    Shieldbreaker:
    (5 items) When you deal damage with a Light or Heavy Attack against a Player with a damage shield, you deal an additional 2150 Oblivion Damage to them.

    Lightning Staff does 4 damage ticks = 8,600 Oblivion damage. Oblivion damage is not halved by Battle Spirit

    Truly Superb Glyph of Decrease Health = 1900 Oblivion damage

    Knight-Slayer :
    (5 items) Your fully-charged Heavy Attacks against Players deal an additional 9% of their Max Health as Oblivion Damage.

    1 heavy attack with those 2 sets and glyph = 10,500 Oblivion Damage + 9% Oblivion Damage

    still wonders me, I dont think that it should proc multiple times within one heavy attack of lighting staff.

    Feels wierd/unintended. But at the same time it works exactly as the tooltip says it should.

    I can only compare this to how the maelstrom enchant works on eg a Lightning staff where only the first tick gets extra dmg from the maelstrom enchant. But here all ticks get the buff (sure 2 different "sets" but still).

    Maybe change to tooltip so it only can proc once every x seconds, I don´t know .P

    It's an unintended bug, anyone who try's pulling the "working as intended" BS is simply a troll doing a *** poor job.

    There were a number of other sets that added effects to heavy attacks which ended up proccing on every tick of resto/lightning staff heavies too. Namely Undaunted Infiltrator/Unweaver. However those sets were patched long ago to only proc on the final tick.

    Shield Breaker suffers from the exact same bug, but simply hasn't been fixed.

    Only thing i would consider intended is maybe duel wield heavy attacks procing shield breaker twice... but even that is.... well you know.

    Youll always have bowtards though spamming light attacks. Is it really thay different?

    Lightning procing it 4 times is for sure a bug.

    Na, they need to make more of these kinds of sets that counter types of metas. It makes formulated grp pvp possible in this game along with meta-breakers.

    That's nice being coy, equivocating a class you find hard to kill with a bugged set that lets you kill people in 2 heavy attacks because of the bug.

    Btw, you dropped this.

    :'( :'( :'( I don't even pvp I just come here to collect Sorcerer tears. The tears are the only thing that sustain my tank magNB since the unnecessary changes that came from all the pvp sorc whining. Ever since a certain dev got the bad touch from a nightblade, they've been cutting and snipping away at my baby but still I persevere. The sorc lobby is so strong in this game, any viable counter to their god hood gets hammered to death.

    Sorcs bruh, always looking for snip to complain about... smh.
