Expose weakness *is* supposed to cause bleed damage, right?
Problem is that I have just noticed that my Drow Deathsinger does not seem to get it to fire.
I get the "Expose Weakness *hit*" text message, but no damage appears in the log.
Is this a known problem?

Re: Expose Weakness' bleed damage
The bleed damage starts to tick a round from when it is applied, and then it appears as a simple scrolling message and damage popup:
Charactername damages Target: X (X Physical)
Where X would be your DEX score -10. So if you have a Dex of 17, you get a tick of 7 damage.

No, it's double your Dex modifier.Svabodnik wrote:Where X would be your DEX score -10. So if you have a Dex of 17, you get a tick of 7 damage.

Works out the same any time the DEX is even so I could see where one might make the mistake, but Theodore has the accurate calc, it's double DEX modifier.Theodore01 wrote:No, it's double your Dex modifier.Svabodnik wrote:Where X would be your DEX score -10.

Re: Expose Weakness' bleed damage
For an even-valued DEX, calculation is the same as 'double your DEX mod'. The way it actually works in game, if you have an odd-valued DEX, you can see it's actually (DEX - 10). Otherwise, 17 DEX would only be ticking for 6.

Well color me wrong!
Well, I suppose it gives some benefit to having an odd DEX score, nothing wrong with that.

Re: Expose Weakness' bleed damage
Well, I am a doofus.
For some reason I thought the bleed damage was only DEX mod, so was looking for the wrong number,
On rechecking, damage was working as it should be......
