Meanwhile, Wit's End = 40 damage per hit outright
The damage is there as another way to deal with regen, not for the raw damage. Anyone with 20+ hp/5 won't really notice the 4 damage tick per second. At any rate, it probably works like most DoT - stacking to a cap (probably 4-5 stacks) then refreshing or simply refreshing each hit like Teemo's.[/COLOR]
IMO DoT damage is far more potent than simple straight-up damage, because of its ability to seem insignificant but to be actually very damaging.
I might try this item out to check stacks if I can get in-game on Rammus or Fiora any time soon. If it does stack to any decent amount, then it serves the same function as Malefic Visions or Ignite: to kill people when they try to run. This and something like Black Cleaver or Malady seems like it would be deadly to a runner.
