Edit

Puncture

Puncture is an attack skill that applies the Bleed ailment to enemies it hits, causing them to take physical damage over time that increases while the target is moving. Bleed applied with this skill deals more damage than usual.

Mechanics

Unlike other sources of bleed, Puncture's bleed ailment lasts 8 seconds and is affected by % increased Skill Effect Duration modifier, including the Increased Duration Support support gem.

For mechanics of the bleed effect itself, see Bleed.

1.3.0	Puncture now bleeds for 10% of hit damage at all levels and 50% of hit damage while moving.
1.2.0	Fixed a bug where Puncture did not benefit from Increased Item Rarity or Increased Item Quantity.
1.0.2	Generic modifiers to damage dealt will now apply to damage over time that your character causes. Damage over time is not spell damage, nor attack damage, so modifiers specific to those types will not apply. Non-specific "increased damage" modifiers will apply to damage over time. Type-specific modifiers will apply as well.
1.0.0d	Fixed a bug where monster deaths from Puncture were not awarded as kills correctly.
0.10.8	Increased damage at high levels and Physical Damage % added to it that increases each level, to match other similar skills. May now be used with Two Handed Swords.
0.10.0	Increases to physical damage taken now apply correctly to physical degeneration (such as damage from Puncture).
0.9.13	Puncture is now scaled to start much stronger with a flatter progression to match other melee skills that scale weapon damage.
0.9.11j	Fixed Puncture's quality bonus so that it now works.
0.9.11	Fixed a bad interaction between on-drink flask effects and Puncture.
0.9.10	Fixed a rare bug that would cause you to take damage from Puncture indefinitely until you left the instance. Fixed a bug where being punctured multiple times would cause incorrect behaviour.
0.9.7b	Removed the 1% pierce chance.
0.9.7	Puncture has been added to the game.
