Changing duration doesn't effect tick rate if it's not a slowing or speeding up effect. Ash's passive would be pointless if that weren't the case. Increasing duration means more ticks, causing more damage. Reduced status duration (like the warframe mod i can't remember at the moment) means less damage. With speeding up and slowing down effects, the number of ticks remains the same, but the tickrate changes. So a speedva plus Ash would be pretty effective because of the faster ticking slash DoTs with more ticks overall due to Ash's passive (not to mention the straight up +25% damage also from Ash's passive).
