Notes

Regarding Tenacity:

• If a weapon action misses, using Tenacity does not trigger its effects.
• As Tenacity deals weapon damage even if an attack misses, it can trigger many on-hit effects from equipment. For example, from the  Gloves of Power, the  Callous Glow Ring, weapon coatings, or any infusion from the  Ring of Elemental Infusion.

Bugs

Regarding Tenacity:

• As  Horde Breaker (Melee) rolls invisible, zero-damage weapon attacks against all enemies in the Horde Breaker area of effect, Tenacity can be prompted to trigger against them even if the first attack hits. It is therefore possible to score 2 hits in one attack: the full attack against the original Horde Breaker target and a Tenacity hit against another target.
