Notes[edit]

  • Will trigger on multiple foes if they are all hit at the same time (such as with Barrage) and are already affected by one of the listed control effects.
    • The cooldown is shared between all foes. That means that this trait will only trigger once every 10 seconds for all foes struck.
  • Will not trigger on multiple foes if they are all hit at the same time by an ability that causes both damage and CC (such as with Glyph of Equality).
