charged axe?

Lynx7386 · March 2018

My stamsorc is using 1 sword and 1 axe on her dual wield bar, and the axe dropped with the charged trait (+100% chance to apply status effects)

I assume this does not help with applying the bleed proc from twin blade and blunt?

I assumed bleed was considered a status effect, so a charged weapon would double the chances from 8% to 16%?

Not tried it, cant confirm.

No it won't help. Bleed is a simple dot that ignores armor, that's all

status effects are:

Poisoned, Burning, Chilled, Diseased and Concussed, and each attack with the respective damage type has a chance to apply them.

On a stam dk charged can be decent on the offhand, with enough fire and poison damage (red mountain, poisonous serpent, mephala, venomous claw, noxious breath, flames of oblivion, standard of might etc.) nothing ideal, but a very fun build that I like to use in dungeons sometimes. DPS is still 36-37k on dummy.

Well that's a bummer. Physical damage really should have a status effect

Yeah, the status effect for physical damage should be a bleed.

Maybe "crushed: reduced armor for 5 seconds"

It is a passive, like implosion and is not increased by charged, as has been explained in this thread.
