Serpent Sting + Improved Serpent Sting [Damage]

[durham]

Spell name : Serpent Sting + Improved Serpent Sting

Date tested : 04-04-2014

How it works :

Improved Serpent Sting hits like a truck from 45k to 90k crits

I was in d.stance (25% damage reduction)

resil (74% damage reduction)

wall macro (40% damage reduction)

and 1 thick crit for 56k crit.

...............................................

now lets do some simple math to see how much this can hit

Serpent Sting

Causes 16200 (+ 80% of Attack power) Nature damage over 15 sec.

Improved Serpent Sting

Increases the damage of your Serpent Sting by 50%, and causes it to also deal instant damage equal to 15% of its total periodic effect.

 

lets say we have a good geared hunter surv.

Mastery: Essence of the Viper mastery 15%

attack power 50000

pvp power 50%

 

Serpent Sting will do 16000 (+50000x80%) = 56200 damage over 15 sec

+ Improved Serpent Sting = 84300 damage over 15 sec.+ mastery 15% + pvp power = a total of 145417.5 damage over 15 sec. (29083.5 damage per second) + 15% each thick from Improved Serpent Sting = 29083.5 damage + 21812.625 (15% from total damage) = 50896.125 damage per each thick

 

the target have 74% damage reduction from resil (no defensive cooldowns) each thick will be 50896.125 damage*0.26 = 13232.9925 damage per thick

 

How it should work :Increases the damage of your Serpent Sting by 50%, and causes it to also deal instant damage equal to 15% of its total periodic effect.

 

PVE damage on dummy - hunter surv. patch 5.4.7 / ap 72k / mastery 17% / ilvl 547 its the same here on players in pvp (with resil and damage reduction auras)

 

Priority : 10/10

Realm : 5.4.2 x10

the spell Serpent Sting and her thick Improved Serpent Sting don't have internal cooldown 3 seconds.

so any hunter can spam Serpent Sting/serpent-sting

like this guy http://i.imgur.com/A7hoiiB.jpg who exploits the spam like a boss. each second Improved Serpent Sting hit 30k non crit and 60k crit (with def.stance 25% damage reduction and resil 75% damage reduction)

 

spaming Serpent Sting/serpent-sting for Improved Serpent Sting proc.

second 10 and 11 http://i.imgur.com/cWGjSHC.jpg

 

also look at second 15 Serpent Sting/serpent-sting damage 15k crit (http://i.imgur.com/cWGjSHC.jpg)

and Improved Serpent Sting crit for 55k .... its so clear that this is not the RIGHT damage for pvp.

 

Thank you.

 

this spell is too much skill for me :)
