Currently the boons are corrupted only on the last hit. For me it often fails because enemies dodge the last hit or move a few steps aside after the first hit (Death’s Charge stops moving to the target as soon as the first hit. Don’t know if this is a bug or intended)

It would be much better if the boon corrupt would trigger on the first connect.

Right, so, on a 6 or 5 second cooldown we have:

  • Leap Finisher (FINALLY FFS)
  • Blind
  • Several small hits
  • Projectile destruction (basically invuln vs certain opponents/weapons)
  • Chill (if traited)
  • Boon corruption (if traited)
  • Vuln (if traited chill on blind and vuln on chill)
  • Decent damage (again, not great, but you’ve destroyed ranged opponent projectiles so you’ve delivered it while effectively partially invulnerable)

Every 5 or 6 seconds, depending on your traits.

You want to remove the one thing (i.e. dodging the final hit) which means this isn’t hilariously overpowered?!

I was wrecking face with this. Absolutely going to town on chumps left and right. It needs nothing. It needs a valid counter, it has a valid counter, and even when countered we still get the leap and the projectile destruction and the other hits.

I’m not saying that its bad. In fact i like it a lot and as you say it really wrecks. I just think the behaviour is sometimes strange when the enemy moves away after the first hit. Thats not a matter of counterplay, thats bugged/weird movement

I disagree. Dodging the final hit is a fair counter. Boon corruption on the first hit connect would be nearly un-counterable.
