DoT Single Blade Insanity

bladedragon80

So, dropping this here because I don't really know where to go with it, and I'm sure everyone else will think this is insanity. Plus, I want to see someone try this if they're able to make it work and post here.

(Unnamed Build) - Freeform (Any / Multiple)

Right, so general idea. Reaper's Caress until you get a Clinging Flame, Tornado Slash to get a Chi Flame, then Slash to stack Bleeds. That's generally what I was thinking when I thought this up, but as I'm in the middle of an odd ball LS/Hold-debuffer build, I figured toss it up here and see if anyone wants to take the idea and roll with it.

Later!

Its generally not worth it to stack different DoTs for their own sake, since they tend to come from diff dmg types and/or power sets, and the mechanics they interact with usually don't relate to eachother. It is a neat way to stack diff DoTs as a swordsman, I guess, but a standard bleed + rupture build w/ SB will still perform better.

I guess if you don't care about dps as much, you could widen the support aspect by adding Absorb Heat for CF, and/or something like Mind Drain to go w/ Dependency from Tornado Slash's adv. Could also add in Swallowtail Cut from Scything and the ability to rupture bleeds (so you still have a dps option), but the build wont have many power slots left for other things.
