Has anyone done any testing with the Cut Arteries AA in the Predator Shadow Line to see how much DPS it gives? Right now it is very expensive for me to respec or what I would just give it a try. I have maxed out my points in both the Predator and Ranger trees and looking for where to put my last few points in the Shadows tree. My understanding is that the Bloody Reminder DOT goes off faster but does it also do more damage each time?
It's one of our best AA's and makes a good CA our best CA (yeah I know it's not a ranged attack but with this AA and a proper cast order it will out parse everything short of Quick Shot).

Thats wierd bloody reminder parses so well for rangers, when the counterpart is mediocre for assassins. A lot of us don't bother to take this upgrade in the shadow tree. I'm going to have to look into this more. Do you have other BR upgrades?

Gushing only has 6 tics iirc (and has two immediate hits and a trailing hit) whereas Bloody has 10 (plus an initial hit). Bloody's tics are also higher damage so they see a larger increase than Gushing's. So short version is you get more larger hits with Bloody Reminder.
