Blood Weapon, Salted Earth, Delirium, and Edge/Flood of Darkness/Shadow do not count...


I'm also not counting No Mercy and Bloodfest...

Ok I'll bite, why do you not include Edge/Flood and Salted Earth on Drk but do include Bow Shock and Continuation on Gnb? Both SE and BS are oGCD Dots and both Continuation and the Shadow/Darkness skills are oGCD attacks that you will hit over the course of the fight.

Also I don't know why you'd exclude Delirium, Blood Weapon, No Mercy, and Bloodfest. If you'd said Damage based cooldown then at least I would understand why you'd exclude them as they don't directly apply damage. However based on the fact that you said "Offensive based cooldowns", I don't see how anyone could say that these skills are anything other than an Offensive based cooldowns.

Yeah, I couldn't tell you why I'm not counting Edge/Flood of Darkness/Shadow, as for Salted Earth it's classified as a buff rather than an actual DoT, plus it doesn't any initial damage when you use it... as for excluding Delirium(A.K.A. discount Inner Release) it's buff that lets you spam one button 5 times which is more just as boring as spamming your 1 single target combo for 90 seconds, Blood Weapon just sucks to use now, No Mercy is a decent buff but does not count as an actual attack, and Bloodfest just gives you 2 more cartridges and also does not count as an actual attack...


Also people Are going to confuse Bow Shock with Bloodspiller now, and same with Salted Earth and Souleater(or Square-Enix)... Suck to be the new people who are trying to learn the terminology...
