I gave up trying to figure it out. Kinda wonder if they placed some kind of cap on the ability. It doesn't stack like it should. Maybe buffs are resetting stacks? It's still good but if working as described it would be great.
The thing is none daily, feature, encounter has effect as "curse" effect. To stack dot you need to press TAB after every SS - which is kinda lol to waste 1 sec after every use when GWF can just hold right mouse and do 3x more dmg.

SS consumes the curses that inflicts DOT since the beginning. If you want to mitigate the "TAB-Spam" you have the following opportunities AFAIK: 1. Use Warlock Bargain first - it counts as curse and should support SS DOT 2. Use Tyrannical Curse of course 3. One of the first two feats in damnation places a lesser curse on the target if WC is removed. Since the rework of SW the lesser curse should also support the DOT of SS.
And you may use All Consuming Curse. If you crit you get a lesser curse.
There is only one curse that procs SS-DOT -> WC by curseconsum No TC, no LC, no WB proc the Scorch-DOT, they do proc the fury Capstone Creeping Death (wich favours fury over damn/temp since mod 10 rework) despite the wrong tooltip, wich tells you it only works with WC. But none of those -> TC, LC, WB proc SS-DOT. The burning damage from SS is tied to WC curseconsume, and WC has to be refreshed everey time, no matter is LC, TC or WB is also active. TAB spamming is essential for SS-Spammer.. and a bit annoying also because that WC is soo laggy. And that´s the way it allways used to be, concernig that fire DOT.

TC procced SS-dot befote mod 10 and TC procced CD only if you applied WC first? Or was it WC followed by WB
