ICD on Demonic Lore ruins the trait
Yeah I have to agree, with an ICD it is quite simply trash. Wanna see what real profession development looks like? Open these side by side for a second.

Look at that change log… And it’s not even an elite spec.
Grow some balls ANet; give Scourge access to fire damage.
Mmm 7 burn stacks from Feast of Corruption.
Surrender and serve me in life, or die and slave for me in death.
Mmm 7 burn stacks from Feast of Corruption.
The trait only applies on Torment application. The number of Torment stacks does not matter. None of these types of traits work that way.
It should definitely be split for PvE and PvP though.
Keep the ICD for PvP but remove it in PvE.
Mmm 7 burn stacks from Feast of Corruption.
This is what we SHOULD be getting, but sadly as mentioned above, we will not be getting… unless we get real vocal about things.
welp at least this will be an easy way to buff scourge DPS for anet…

That is a shame. A pve/ pvp split would be perfectly acceptable though.

We can already add 10 stacks of Torment with Scepter 3 if the target has enough Conditions already on it. Also using 1,600 Condition Damage without Condition Duration for math is silly.
The 10 Stacks of Torment from Scepter 3 added with the other Torment skills, will have us maintaining an easy 26-30 stacks. Condition Duration is a huge part of Condition DPS.
Also unbuffed I have over 1,900 Condition Damage. In a Raid you have near 3,000 or over. When you have realistic buffs, and are Condition Duration capped, I’d expect 12,000+ ticks of Torment.
Torment just got buffed to be the same Damage as Bleeding, which is our other main Condition. I don’t think the Wiki has been updated yet with the new Torment Damage math. Yeah, it won’t be absurd stacks, but it will even out with not having Reaper anymore.
If the Burning had no ICD it may be very overpowered. If it is a problem though, they will remove it for PvE probably.
Torment and Confusion were buffed by 25% recently. The Wiki formula hasn’t changed yet.

It’s 7 torment from Feast of Corruption btw.

I guess I just see it stay at ten then a lot because of Condition Duration, and stacks always stay up. Either way Scepter 3 got buffed recently, and will do way more with Scourge.
how thief, engi, ele, ranger benefit so much from condi damage while we’re with some kitten bleeding, a bit of torment and a low burn cuz of kittenty icd. also it should be for every stack fo torment should be burning. zis is the definition of class discrimination.
arena mother kittener net making kitten excuse to not make necro an optimal dps cuz of they force defensive mechanics on the class while they still don’t have focus fire survival and which other classes have. others can focus fire survival, optimal dps and tons of kitten while necros only have a bit more health than everyone and get nothing but being weak. what a kitten. necros are awesome but the devs are such kitten kittens.
At least he spelled most of the words correctly…
