Mechanics

• The affected area describes a full circle of radius 600 around the point where the elite was cast. The line converts one boon per tick for a total of 10 boons corrupted. It takes 6.5 seconds for it to complete the circle, for an average of one boon every 0.7 second.
• The line starts directly behind the player and rotates counterclockwise.
• In WvW the effect ends after hitting 5 enemies with its damage tick even if no boons were corrupted.

Bug:

The attack is affected by  Quickness and ends up hitting 7 times instead of the intended 10 hits.
