multiple curses on hit without extra curse to generate charges
I am curious if I can use multiple curses on hit to generate charges. I don't need both to be up all the time, just often enough to give me full charges. The most efficient way to do this that I can think of, using the fewest links, would be a poacher's mark and a warlord's mark attached to a HoT with CoH. My understanding is that HoT will always try to apply both, but my curse limit is 1. Will it alternate between them, or will the same curse always have higher priority?

I'm pretty sure that if it applies 2 at a time, it applies 1, then the second overwrites it. You will only ever get one of them, and AFAIK, it will always be the same one.
U MAD?

Like Docbp said, i believe that the curse that is in that last slot of your link setup will be the one that will remain active, because it overrides the previous curse. Now, some items have a mod that increase your curse limit so you don't have to take the passive points on the tree. Whenever i decide to run two curses, i usually end up getting a rare amulet with prefix "Enemies can have an additional curse".

" FTFY Doedre's Damning ring, Windscream boots, Cospri's Will chest can all provide an additional curse. U MAD?

it can be done, helps being a crit build that shatters.
for example you link curse on hit poachers with HoI and then curse on hit assassins with HoT. Mostly mobs will get asassins but when you shatter a pack the first one who blows curses the rest with poachers just before they all die and you get the frenzy charges. Another setup Ive done before is HoT warlords for the leech, so thats always up, but then HoI assassins to get a burst of power charges when I kill a tight pack. If you only need warlords for endurance charges though just use enduring cry tbh, its easy, press a button get charges, simple. If you need it for the leech tho... then this is the way. |

It really depends on how ranged you are as to the method but it can be done really effectively.
Here's a demo of using two curses with only 1 implicit character curse. This is having Warlord's on Blasphemy and Poacher's on CoH HoI. Monsters hit and killed outside the Blasphemy range give and maintain Frenzy Charges while the monsters inside Blasphemy range give Endurance Charges. This character is getting Power Charges from Skyforth but alternatively, while being a bit fiddly, you could also use Orb of Storms CoH Chain (Cull) to either chain outside your Blasphemy range or run ahead of it leaving it to curse and cull stragglers. Alternatively have the other curse on HoT as Snorkle pointed out (probably better in most cases). Casually casual. Last edited by TheAnuhart#4741 on Feb 1, 2017, 6:50:08 PM
