Default How does CoB work?

Sorry for asking such a dumb question, but how is Chimes of Blades supposed to work?

Does it only trigger off the melee attacks of members in the group?

Can it trigger off ca's?

When the dirge calls CoB, am I (as an assassin) supposed to stop spamming my ca's? Or should I hit my ca's slower to allow my autoattacks to get thru? Or should I just stop attacking all together?

Thanks again for the explanation.

short version

CoB is a short duration song that grants the dirge's group increased attack speed, with interrupts and additional disease damage with every melee strike

you should be timing your CA's to come right after and before the next auto attack other wise you lose a large amount of dps. CoB has a rather large amount of haste with it, so the delay on weapons change when it is active which is why it is given a macro to let people know that it is active so they can adjust their timing of CA's to their new weapon delays while it is active

No.



Edited: to explain it more clearly as it was very clear about it before

CoB procs off ranged now, too, so you get a proc with every successful swing from your primary weapon, excluding double attacks.
