Inaros Desiccation Clarififcation

[DxAdder]

I thought that when Desiccation was cast that 25% of the damage was given back to the frame?

Now this may be he case but what I am seeing is that if the damage outright kills the creature you get nothing back.

I ran into this issue last night on the first part of the alert, I had cast scarab swarm and found myself with almost no health for the mission.

Since Desiccation was killing everything I had no way to do melee finishers to get health back.

well the first part of the TA had really low leveled enemies so of course you'd kill everything depending on your build. i'm using a high range/duration build so i was able to use the finisher passive easily.

I think you missed my point, Wiki Description:

Inaros scatters a wave of cursed sand that staggers all enemies up to 10 / 12 / 13 / 15 meters away in a cone in front of him, dealing 75 / 100 / 125 / 150 damage on hit, then 2 / 4 / 6 / 8 damage per second for 3 / 5 / 6 / 8 seconds. 25% of any damage dealt by both the initial attack and the damage-over-time effect is conferred back to Inaros as health.

 

The last part wasn't working at all on enemies I killed outright.

It does work for me, tho since I'm running -str build for range I only get like 1 health ticks out of it.
