I dont know if this has been posted, i searched and didnt find anything.
I was recently in a battleground, i was fighting this 1 player, i activated my cold blood to kill him with eviscerate crit, but he died b4 the global cooldowns went away, so i had coldblood still on, thinking to myself now i have to waste it on some stupid backstab:wave:. Ok, so then i saw a undead priest, i stealthed, cheap shotted, then right when cheap shot broke, he bubbled himself, i used backstab (Still had coldblood) and it said "ABSORBED" but, i saw that i got 2 combo points on him from +Combo point crit, and i still had coldblood on, then i tried it again, but damege came out, for like 256, then coldblood wore off.
I Think whats going on is, if you use coldblood, if u do NO damege with it, then it doesnt go off, So if u use backstab, sin strike, or any ability that adds combo points, if u have coldblood on, and ALL the damege gets absorbed, it will still stay on, along with double combo points if u got the 100% to add combo point when crit blah blah blah.
Someone please confirm this, im kind of away from my WoW computer atm.
