  1. First off, thanks for responding on a three-year old thread. It's a testament to an engaged and helpful community. Truly CoH-worthy. This is for a Guardian Hellfire/Dark build. This AT is on Rebirth so might be called something different (if even present) on HC or other servers. Many powers have a minor toxic DoT. The set's tier 9 is an extreme fire DoT. Also have Soul Storm's moderate negative DoT. Res debuf abounds. Procs are present but not as many as I would prefer given all the DoTing. I chose to pursue some higher set bonuses in this particular build. I think your "it is activating an attack that adds a stack or checks for DH" answers the question. I mistakenly thought otherwise. Appreciate the concise insight.
  2. (Apologies for necro post, hope someone sees it anyway) Can DoT intensive builds skew any aspect of this? I have a toon with mostly DoT attacks and would if double hit or getting to 5 damage stacks would happen quicker/more often.
  3. Might be a bit of a necro post by this point but here goes. I actually suggested something very similar on another server recently. Unfortunately, there are two key issues standing in the way of this excellent idea. First off, while reducing actual power execution time is doable, the technical hurdles necessary to make it presentable are significant. The short version is there would have to be multiple versions of each power animation made for each of the accelerated steps that could be possible. I could go into further details but after talking to folks very familiar with the code I can safely say it would be a huge undertaking. Secondly, and this is the real kicker, the game already has this mechanic, or at least something very similar. It's called Momentum and even though it would have made far more sense to put it on Kinetic Melee, the original devs put it on the asinine Titan Weapons power set. So there is our conundrum. If I had unlimited time, money, and dev resources, I would move Momentum to KM and give Titan Weapons a more fitting mechanic. C’est la vie.
