I’m trying out the skill puncture with a bow and taking the “stay of execution” node.
If I understand correctly your ranged attack speed has no more impact on puncture. So I don’t need it.
The charge time feels longer than 1 sec as in description. I’ve tried to measure it and I think it’s 1.15 secs for me.
I also wanted to speed it up via “night’s descent” but you need “dark quiver” to make it work?
Its charge the attack for up to 1 second for +100% more bow damage. You can release it early say at 0.5 seconds for 1/2 the boost damage. Really you want to get a few levels of the Thrill of Anticipation node to make it worth using.
You need to have picked up a black arrow for night’s descent to work and dark quiver is the only source I can see of black arrows.
