"Petrified Blood"

Hi!

Does the life loss prevented by "Petrified Blood" taken as a DoT? If so, may I abuse from DoT reductions? Such as "Soul of Arakaali" Phanteon's passive?

And does increasing effects duration extend "Petrified Blood"´s DoT duration? If so, suppose i take 100 damage over 4 seconds due to "Petrified Blood"´s effect but instead extend that duration for the total of 6 seconds, this means i would take the same 100 damage but over 6 seconds?


Thank u!

Does increasing the skill effects means i would prevent more damage than 40% of damage taken? And would increase the DoT taken too?

From the wiki page:

"You cannot directly mitigate the life loss over time from Petrified Blood in any way, not even from sources of damage immunity like a Divine Shrine."

As far as I know, you can't extent the DoT's duration. This should be pretty easy to test in-game - link your PB with Less Duration support and time it with and without the support.

No, it is not damage over time. It isn't doing damage to you at all. Instead, it's delaying a portion of the life loss from hit damage that you took, and applying the life loss over time instead of all at once like usual.

Thus, it also doesn't interact in any way with anything else related to DoT, such as duration. There's currently no means of affecting its duration.

So sad, my dreams are crashed xD

Thank u both!
