    Some questions about Twist of Fate

    Seems surprisingly hard to find details on how this talent actually works.

    1) If I have dots running on an enemy when it goes below 20%, will it proc the buff? Or does it require direct dmg?

    2) After the proc happens, do dots need to be reapplied to gain benefit?

    3) Say I have a bunch of mobs around me, that I'm AOE:ing with Mind Sear. Will the buff proc mid-channel as soon as the first enemy goes below 20%? Will the dmg on the Mind Sear update right away or does it need to be recast?

    4) As long as you keep hitting something below 20%, does the 10 sec duration keep resetting to 10 all the time?

    1 - Dots will proc it

    2- Dots only "screenshot" your buffs you have when they are cast and do not update mid duration, so yes

    3 - no clue on mindsear mechanics sorry ;P

    4 - yes it keeps refreshing so in an ideal world you want to try and hit the add as it dies

    Just tested Mind sear with intellect procs and it did update mid cast. So it should update with ToF as well.

    1) yes, dots will continue to trigger it every time they do damage to the target as long as it is below 20%. Sometimes it even continues after the mob has died (elegon sparks).

    2) Yes, need to re-apply.

    3) Yes, mindsear will proc ToF as soon as a mob hits 20%. The next ticks will gain the benefit, so keep channelig.

    4) Yes.

    To reiterate, dot damage will proc ToF. Just having the dot on the target when it goes below 20% will not do anything.
