Is it just me

Or does corruptions procc 10 times more in pvp?

I run 40 corruption everythings fine, i get approx 1-2 things from beyond a minute

Dh attacks me

Thing from beyond

Gets hit & then dh stuns me

another thing from beyond

Then another thing from beyond before the dh stun is over

Dead
Next time :

Rogue - opens on me

Thing from beyond

kidney shotted

Thing from beyond

Dead

So i was wondering, is there a patch note anyone can direct me that makes corruptions proc more/differntly in pvp? I can’t find it :thinking: all i could find was the socket situation

should try using rune of power with 40+ corruption or even just with eye of corruption, i swear every time I put it down I have to commit to eating the damage so I can do my rotation.

Every time you take a hit of damage you have a chance to spawn one, that’s why. Unless you’re running heart of darkness you probably wanna run less than 20 corruption in pvp.

Because every time any damage ticks on you there’s a chance to spawn one? So in PvE you’re taking 2-3 hits of damage every 10 seconds that’s 2-3 chances of spawning. In pvp if you’re getting hit by 20 different hits of damage every 10 seconds that’s 20 chances.

Corruption penalties have increased chances to spawn based on frequency of dmg taken. There is a minor starting point from simply entering combat but after that, its all about the amount of hits you take. So yes going over 40 is a bad idea vs dh or rog cus they hit 300 times pr minute. Its also why many shy away from going high corruption on bosses like N’zoth mythic cus you take dmg constantly and then get dots on top of that.
Any experiences you have that prove otherwise are simply the result of RNG or the hits being absorbed by shields or parries

Ideally you don’t want more than 39 corruption hence thing from beyond, but I can relate. the amount of times ive made my healer overheal me on my mage so i can sit on my rune of power, cause eye of corruption always basically spawns on it I swear its scripted AF

Tried pvping on grovi

Got hit by kidney shot & 3 things from beyond before the stun ended, literally got annihilated for running 2 corruption ( Had 41 total )

Imma buy a corruption resistance when i can lol, 3 corruption ressistance seems like the biggest advantage atm

Sounds about right, its a nice thing to have (corruption) but its a nightmare to have not enough resistance for it

So you pull big on one world quest? What’s your point? What I said is accurate. PvE fights that have constant ticking damage will proc more than 1-2 things from beyond a minute. Like I said in PvP you get hit a lot more by instances of damage than in pve, hence more spawns.
