Notes[ | ]
- There is no separate roll for the additional effect to procure. So after every successful weapon hit (or crit), the Wounding effect will be automatically applied to target. In other words, the effect cannot "miss" – which also means that it cannot graze nor crit.[1]
- However, the final length of the Wounding effect is affected by attacker's Intellect.
- Wounding damage over time stacks, giving multiple parallel instances of the effect if you hit the enemy multiple times.
- The height of the wounding damage is influenced by one's might score. Only at 10 might it deals 25% of weapon damage as raw damage, but for example at 20 Might it will deal 32.5%.
- Similarly to Wounding Shot Ranger ability, the overall damage of Wounding is fixed and does not increase with a longer duration (see Intellect). Therefore the highest DPS (damage per second) can be achieved if you have as low Intellect as possible.[2]
- Wounding unlocks Predator's Sense.
