Shadowknight AA Soul Abrasion

[ladel]

very much like the changes done to SKs today.

an append would be that some SKs rotate two lifetaps back to back to maintain health and increase dps (damage for heal). Touch of the Devourer being changed to 1500 feels right, but the next lifetap (touch of inruku) and the gap it leaves in healing and damage feels wrong for custom emu.

Touch of Devourer - 1500dmg - 448mana
Touch of Inruku - 575dmg - 395mana

huge difference for 53 mana. and waiting to recast the same damage for heal spell is really ineffective.

touch of inruku being boosted to 1000 would help damage for heal SKs alot.

With the improvements to our lvl70 lifetap (which I love) I can't help but notice that it is now more powerful than our Spear of Muram. Tradionally our nukes deal more damage than our lifetaps, since the lifetaps heal us in return.

Currently:
Touch of the Devourer (Lifetap) = 1500dmg 448m
Spear of Muram (Disease Nuke) = 1250dmg 400m

Perhaps an increase to the Spear's nuke damage, or an added DoT component would revive its usefulness. Definetly apretiate the boost to Touch of the Devourer though!

i noticed earlier today that soul abrasion only affects weapon based lifetap procs and not the shroud based lifetap procs like its intention.

As far I remember the text of AA refers to weapon proc spells:

This ability gives you increased damage off of the lifetap procs that result from your self buffs.

yeah it doesn't effect shroud spells. wish it did

[Argonas]

zeik your own quote provides the evidence that it is supposed to affect procs from slef buffs ir. shroud of discord.

Yes. What is the problem?

I think hes saying that Shroud of Discord imbues your weapon with a lifetap proc which in return is not affected by this AA we are talking about but should be according to your quote
