Time Rot used in non-Dot builds

Sentinel

Hi,

coming back to play after a long break and love melee in LE, so jumping into playing VK vengeance and erasing strike.

I’ve noticed a few builds with VK seem to max out Time Rot where they can, even though they’re not really building Dot damage.

I figured it may have been to boost Erasing Strike’s Final Hour passive node, but one of them isn’t even using erasing strike…

DPS doesn’t seem particularly strong - 12x 55dps = 660, times say 3 (200inc void/dot damage) and you’re only adding ~2k dps

So what am I missing?
It doesn’t seem great, but still decent, when i’m doing 20-30k strikes at level 70 but having to dump a lot of passives and skill nodes into it.

Cheers

Out of the top of my Head there are 3 nodes that scale with Time Rot:

Void Cleave - Etropic Blows
Erasing Strike - Final Hour
Warpath - Maw of the Deep

There might be one more that I missed, not sure.

I missed entropic blows for void cleave, not a bad one actually - but they weren’t using that nor warpath either.

i’ll keep digging
