Is Puncturing Sweep Undodgeable and Did It Get Weaker?

-

I’m considering using Puncturing Sweep with my Templar build, especially against Nightblades, but I can’t remember if it’s truly undodgeable or if it can be avoided with proper timing. Also, I’ve heard it might have lost some damage over the years. Can anyone clarify?

It used to have a fourth tick of damage, but that got removed in exchange for a slightly faster cast time of 0.2 seconds. Unfortunately, due to the global cooldown, you can still only use it once every second, so in practice, it has lost some damage overall.

Did they increase the damage to make up for that loss, or is it a straight drop? Losing 25% sounds pretty harsh.

So it can’t be dodged at all?

Yes, Puncturing Sweep is undodgeable, but keep in mind it can be blocked. So your opponents can still defend against it, just not dodge it.
