It's true you are increasing the frequency but the frequency is +1 hit for every time 10 hits that was possible without the -delay reduction. So for example if this new stance for darkside was incorporated and we kept the -10% delay. Every 11 hits we have seen a +100 potency due to having done an extra hit in that 10 hit period of time without the -10% delay. I don't know how I can word what I'm deducing any better.
Edit: correction is 11 hits with the -10% delay. 11 hits transfers to a 100 potency gain due to the extra hit. If you only make it to 10 hits before something becomes untargetable, you didnt gain anything.
Edit#2: GDCs are affected by the -10% recast, they have nothing to do with the auto attacks other than causing interruptions. If you don't make it to 11 hits you still have not seen any gain.
Edit#3: The only other gains that are possible for the 11'th hit are the extra +blood and +MP that come with it, along with the extra chance for a critical or direct hit. So I guess its not just a 100 Potency, you have to include those forms of potency as well and they are also all or nothing. Either the hit happens and you gain those extra or the hit doesn't happen and you don't gain those either.
