But I saw this in another thread and was curious if it works as stated.



I am asking about the mid-combo aspect of the comment.

Going to try it of course, but looking for those who have already tested it.
All of the Miasmas are abilities like Avatar of Death, Dull Pain, Cat's Paw, etc etc. Meaning, you can hit the button mid combo to get the ability and it won't interrupt the combo.

THX, and I am good with that, but if Soul Strike depends on GC being in affect on your opponent, hitting it (Soul Strike) mid-combo causes the ability to take hold then go into affect after GC lands?

That being the case, if so, does the GC affect take hold at all, or just go instantly to the "Grim Corruption + Soul Strike = Massive amount of Unholy Damage
"

Chicken or the egg?

No, you still have to land the GC first. You can land the GC, wind up a Swift strikes then during the finisher while the GC is still ticking you can activate Soul Strike without interrupting the swift strikes finisher.

Grim Corruption + Lotus Coated Dart = Silence

Grim Corruption AND Slow Death Strike + Lotus Coated Dart = Combined Effect of Both Above


Miasma:Soul Strike - You must Feat this ability in Corruption Tree.
Combos:
Grim Corruption + Soul Strike = Massive amount of Unholy Damage
Slow Death Strike + Soul Strike = Stun
Grim Corruption AND Slow Death Strike + Soul Strike = Combined Effect of Both Above


Miasma:Face Stab - This is a Core Ability and you do not need to feat it. Face Stab is a core Assassin close combat ability that does physical damage which is multiplied by the number of Base Poisons applied to the target at the time of its use. You can feat unholy stab to increase crit chance on Face Stab.
Combos:
Face Stab Attack with No Poison applied = x1 damage
Grim Corruption OR Slow Death Strike THEN Face Stab = x2 damage
Grim Corruption AND Slow Death Strike THEN Face Stab = x3 damage



I hope this helps to stop the confusion.
does the order have to be grim corruption and slow death strike, or it can be slow death strike and grim corruption, to have the best buffs?

Order doesn't matter because you're using the effects.
