    What do you mean it has a falloff? Post level...I think the notes said 78... It's a 100% chance of refreshing the DoTs on the spread targets. I believe at that rate you can literally never cast DoTs again if there are 2+ targets.

    With Ruination being removed, the Lv. 78 trait has changed Bane’s 15% chance to refresh DoT durations to 30s to the spread targets, not the source, to a 100% chance making the duration reset to spread targets guaranteed.
    Glad to see it's not applying to the source, thus giving us the free GCDs of extra Ruin spam only in multi-target scenarios. That feels reasonably exploiting a unique mechanic (Bane-bounce) rather than just gutting a general one (DoT maintenance). Good, good.

    That would require that Bane overrides the existing directly-applied DoTs. I could have sworn it doesn't, but I will double-check.

    The potency of the DoTs spread by Bane is reduced.
