Usage Strategies
- Note that, like all CA's in the Poison and Bone aspect, casting speed is determined by weapon speed, and can be boosted by weapon lore skills and +% attack speed. Likewise, the casting speed will be penalized by wielding a weapon with too high a level. Tactics Lore serves as the aspect lore skill in terms of damage boost, critical chance, and modification points.
- Range can be expanded to great effect with silver mod Effluvium and/or Combat Art Range +X% modifier on gear. Effluvium will also increase the range scaling per level, so by max level the radius will be doubled.
- Cursing enemies beforehand with Lower Resist is highly recommended, especially for poison-resistant enemies.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Good range and damage, inflicts both flat damage and DOT.
- Good for mobs and crowd control.
Cons
- Not very effective against large powerful single targets (bosses, dragons, etc.).
