Rend is the only Tier 3 skill in Athena's Xiphos tree.
It grants Athena access to a unique damage-over-time condition that becomes more powerful against tougher enemies, and facilitates later skills.
Effect
- Bleed Duration: 12 Seconds
- Bleed deals up to +100% bonus damage against targets with high health.
Using a melee attack after purchasing Rend inflicts 'Bleed' on the target. Bleed's damage scales up with the health of the target, dealing up to 200% melee damage (including all bonuses from skills and equipment) against especially tough victims.
Strategy
- There is no limit on how many enemies can be Bleeding at the same time.
- Bleed is its own unique condition, allowing it to stack with Elemental damage-over-time.
- Rend scales with the enemy's total health, not with their remaining health. At less than 50% remaining health, Omega-Senshu will further increase Bleed Damage.
