Rend

Effect

Template:Skill effect list (effect of initial damage, damage over time, and duration of damage over time all increase as the skill level increases)

• This skill does has no effect on Undead Creatures (i.e. it results in no damage and no healing modifier)
• The damage over time & healing modifier stacks up to 3 times on your opponent.
• The size of the healing Modifier is not impacted by skill level; it improved by raising blade specialization (see Healing Modifier heading below).

Healing Modifier

This is a debuff that is placed on your opponent when you land a rend attack. The Healing Modifier debuff reduces an opponent's ability to regenerate health (i.e. hit points). If an opponent cannot regenerate hit points as fast, they can be killed more quickly. The rend (damage over time) and the healing modifier (regen debuff) can be seen by hovering your mouse over the "rend" icon that appears under the opponent's health bar. The healing modifier debuff shows as a negative number (which means it is reducing the opponent's healing regen capacity). Raising the Blade Specialization skill makes the Healing Modifier more negative (in other words, the higher your blade specialization, the greater the debuff on health regeneration). The rend skill level does not alter the healing modifier.
