    right now if you use corruption ring you have to use it at least per 5 second to activate the MP regen function, or MP regen won't work, and it has a cooldown of 10 sec or less . Can't remember exactly the cooldown time .

    Holding it doesn't charge it more. You can stop as soon as you hit something once. The amount of regen doesn't change if you do more ticks of damage, so just do 1 tick of damage and then stop to cast mp infusion.

    Sometimes you want to hold it, say if you are going to eat damage. The 50% damage reduction glyph is useful, so in situations where you are going to take damage, you can hold it. But generally if you want to infuse MP to party just tick once.

    Just to make sure this point doesn't get lost, you need to actually do damage (though just one tick of damage is enough, as already stated) for the mana regen portion to become available. Just holding it without doing any damage will cause it to go straight to cooldown.
  • ok, so I just basically want it to tick on a monster once or twice and then tap it for the mp now unless I am using it to eat damage with the glyph? I kinda liked the old way this skill worked a lot better.

    The skill still works in the old way, the regen on it was simply buffed so that you don't need to hold it for that long, and it no longer puts you into combat.

    The cooldown always activated upon damage starting to tick. There's a small windup animation however where the cooldown doesn't activate, where you can hold the key down for about two thirds of a second to receive damage reduction from the glyph without proccing the cooldown.

    This is extremely useful knowledge and I can't believe I didn't know it. Thanks OP for asking!
