Rune of Tormenting

Thanks for making an immortal legendary demon.170 healing per stack , no ICD.......count yourself ....I get a feeling this will be nerf in 24 hrs. (most likely add an ICD)

So for those wondering how much it heals for on 0 healing power, it's 171 per stack of torment applied per player.

No ICD.

This looks interesting for condi rev, embrace the darkness?

they sadly already removed it in pvp :(

It's honestly not that OP. It's about as equivalent as life steal.

edit: downvote me, I eat my words.

Show me a lifestealrune, and we cool.

1 proc every 5 seconds is not a lifesteal-rune. Im talking about flat%.Because 171 per stack is like 2k heal for mirage combos - sometimes more, sometimes less

You can get With abyssal chill unyielding anguish heals for 1.7k per pulse so you can get some pretty decent healing, echoing eruption and temporal rift look like they will heal nicely too.

Not "That" OP?It's ridiculous OP.Torment itself only do 32 damage (with 0 condi ) per stack, and it heal 170??? I don't understand how Anet design it.Mace 3, booo 4 stacks, axe 5 boo another 2 stacks, and they are all range AOE and easy to land to 5 targets. it's 30 stacks torment = 5100 healing per pulse (second), Mallyx trait + elite will keep stacking more and more. let's say stack up to 10 stacks on 5 targets then it's 50x170=8500 healing per second........ And this is with 0 healing power.

Have you tested it in real world application?

Sry, Mace 3 actrually can give you 3x3 = 9 targets totally, so itself can give as much as 9x4x170=6k healing per pulse, and its CD is only 8 sec while torment last 10+ seconds...

But again, have YOU tested it in a real world application?

Once again an old Scarlet recipe pays off like a jackpot. I'm also betting sprockets are going to spike since it take a stack per rune to make them. Either way ty Anet for the bonus $$ it's been a good day!

I have and while it is strong I don't think it's going to be a big game changer. The biggest place you will notice this change is in roaming and when applying torment to people with resistance where they don't bother avoiding the application and you get free heals.

Remember forum, if someone is tanking enough torment to heal you to the numbers then they lost the fight by a considerable margin.

Oh damn. I was looking forward to trying it out.. :disappointed:

It's OP right now. Because it procs off of any condition, not just torment. You can test this with sword auto(vuln) and see the HP gains. Once it gets fixed to proc only on torment, it will be ok.

I imagine this works well in PvE but how well would it do in WvW? Does Renegade become more viable or at least surviving more encounters with the change?

Well it gives revs a bit more sustain but it's hard to tell in the current bugged form. Also the person I saw fighting wasn't using renegade and was fighting 2 people with really poor condition clearing ability. I think groups of 3-4 condition revs could really make for a bit of a cheesy comp.

i hope it allows some rev. condibombers in WvW :D i would so shelf my warrior bubblebot for it and play my revenant as a swirling melee condibombergod :D
