Talk:Pilfering Swarm/@comment-79.169.198.254-20150227220403

Just some clarifications on the ability desription:

-Pilfering Swarm chance for additional drops applies on both initial/finish dmg bursts and tentacle hits.

-For tentacle swarm, initial/finish burst are do not count as finisher dmg, only tentacle hits.

In terms of farming, I'd advice a maximized P.Strength (more dmg, additional drops, lower duration, higher cost) and P.Efficiency (lower cost, lower duration). Tentacles are very out-of-control, so lower duration and medium range allows for a better control of this ability.

To maximize damage for higher damage, low duration bursts, try combo'ing it with Total Eclipse or 1st attack augments (volt/ember/forst/oberon/etc). A long duration build could potentially benefit from Savage Silence (although this augment is slightly bugged), but take in mind tentacles may not spawn where desired and you won't be able to recast the ability until it finishes.
