Holy hell! I really need to level my warlock. Thankfully most fights don’t last long enough to get that sort of results.

Trollin: What I think we’re seeing is the benefits of Everlasting Affliction and Corruptor Raiment, the warlock Tier 5 set. You see, Corruption is being constantly renewed with increased damage. Everlasting Affliction increases it by 20% while the four-piece set bonus increases Corruption by another 10%. If a fight lasts long enough, you start seeing ticks capped at 536,870,912.

I see a “stacking a maximum of 10 times” being added to that set bonus in the near future…

this makes our class epic gods, we would kill most bosses very quickly in a 25 man raid =D. but yeah i see a nerf to the t5 set bonus in the near future =P

You wouldn’t be able to one shot, it’s an incremental dmg buff stacking indefinitely, but you still need to stack it.
