Bloodletter "nerf"

[Shyd]

My understanding is Piety helps with the proc landing.

I seem to keep it up on the NM's.

Bloodletter for life. I use it on every job. Since i got it, it has been #4 and will stay there.

From my experience, the reliability of landing an effect of ANY weapon skill now on NM's seems to be based on damage of the weapon skill itself. I've had a lot more success with the Bloodletter effect being landed on Uraeus when I stack it with Raging Strike II.

Yea well thats what I mean, I think something changed in the last patch since they were able to land it extremely often and now maybe 2-3 times a fight. I'm wondering if its a formula thing or maybe a damage thing like Isaaru was saying

Not that i've noticed. Thats the point. I JUST fought the Great Buffalo and every hit inflicted the debuff.

I just think he's lying to be honest. If you are are please refrain from making things up, it's a waste of our time. That being said I feel my theory is pretty valid on the damage being the determinant of the success rate of landing the debuff. I will try and do more testing with screenshots.

I guarantee some of my LS mates are looking here and can back me up on that fight. I know that it sticks nearly every time of the buffalo but i cant say for certain on the mosshorn but it seemed like it was every other. The mosshorn is the only one I have issues with. I have no idea what you saw to be honest really. And why would I be making this up? Not like it does anything productive.

Indeed! the Buffalo is cake and it does stick on nearly every hit

[Honz]

I have to agree with the people that say bloodletter is easy to stick on buffalo. On other NMs not so much, Uraeus almost seems immune to the debuff or I'm just not paying that much attention.

That was my point, sometimes people make things up on forums and it annoys me, sorry for any offense.

I've seen the debuff pop up several times in all of the NM's, and then the eventual "Bloodletter has inflicted 500 damage to the 'Insert NM name here'."

It almost ALWAYS lands.
