Taint working!

[russ71]

I thought i knew how to use taint, you get a hit in at the start and it acumulates on your opponent the more they hit you.

but often a solid hit at the start doesn't seem to start the taint.
Why is this?
Even with a lot of accuracy, the taint still does not start until halfway through the duel.

does taint need to be combined with normal damage too?
no that cannot be right, my opponents taint works on their first hit with no normal damage.

it just has a 50% chance of hitting, bad luck i guess?

[russ71]

so it's 50% chance of hit no matter what?

you cannot improve the chance by distributing taint across both hands and armor?

Nope. As of this version, Taint will always have a 50% chance to hit. Same with poison.
