Crimson Dance is a keystone passive skill. It allows bleed to stack on an enemy up to 8 times. However, the bleeding does not deal extra Damage while the Enemy is moving.
|
If Crimson Dance is allocated, potential damage of one application is 35% of base attack’s physical damage regardless of whether the target is moving or not, and 8 strongest application deal damage. Sustaining all 8 stacks on a target will deal in total 280% of average attack’s base physical damage per second. This effectively quadruples bleed DPS in prolonged fights.
The base duration of bleed is 5 seconds.
Separate applications of bleed do not stack cumulatively (unless Crimson Dance is allocated, then it stacks up to 8 times). Each bleed effect remains present on the target until it runs its course, but only the one with the highest damage per second will cause damage at any given moment. For example, assume an enemy is inflicted with bleed for 100 damage per second, then after 2 seconds it is inflicted with bleed for 50 damage per second. The outcome will be 500 damage over 5 seconds followed by 100 damage over 2 seconds.
Crimson Dance is located at the middle layer of the southwest part of the tree, to the right of the transition path between Duelist and Marauder.
