The Good: Effect Persists through death.

The Bad: Effect Resets with each damage done to the target. Meaning that most of the time the 20% is going to be coming from you more frequent smaller hits instead of your infrequent big crit. Your not going to get the full 20% extra damage unless you only hit your target once every 4 seconds.

So it's not limited to Spires of Arak?

works anywhere

I really, really wish I'd noticed all that earlier and had been buying them every time he had them in stock

Doesn't work for me outside Spires. Buff stay applied, but it does nothing - no any damage on mobs.

This item has some VERY strange (and totally fun) mechanics! It appears that there is NO RANGE RESTRICTION for this item!

Let me give you an example; on my Warlock, I'll target an enemy player (or hostile NPC) as far away as possible. I'm talking across the map, the absolute furthest thing I can target. If I turn on burning rush, the game considers the spell as doing "damage", since it damages the user. 20% of that "damage" is then applied to my target, regardless of range.

Basically, if you can inflict damage on yourself you will apply the proportionate debuff (20% of the tick of damage you did to yourself) to the target no matter how far away they are, as long as you can target them. This applies to any hostile creature you can target. At the time of this writing, the item still works in five mans; I believe it no longer works in challenge modes (99% sure but not positive, will test) but it does work in heroics. If you can "/target" an enemy or boss that is out of range, this will still apply the debuff to them. That is how drastically this avoids any concept of enemy range.

It might not do a tremendous amount of damage... but you can certainly have fun. See an AFK enemy player in one of their hubs that you can't safely access? Maybe a quest NPC? Have you and four friends all pop this buff and start damaging yourselves and kill them from 200 yards away. Lock somebody in combat indefinitely while they have no idea where you are, preventing them from doing... anything. In a WPVP fight and your enemy is close to death and tries to escape? Keep them in combat to prevent them from mounting or starting out-of-combat regen.

There are tons of possibilities for this; it's certainly not powerful enough for anybody to exploit and gain a tremendous advantage on their own, but you can certainly have fun with it. Or... group up with a large coordinated group and *then* do some actual damage.

One more fun tidbit; while the range is infinite, it is restricted to how far you can see in order to target somebody. But... don't forget far sight or any applicable items that offer a similar ability, such as Weitwassermuschelhorn. Or, have a Warlock use their stealthed Auge von Kilrogg (or a rogue/druid simply stealth in range of the player) and then the rest of the group focus their target, and increas your respective "range" through that.

I promise you that while it seems somewhat trivial and is limited to a percentage of damage you can inflict on yourself, I'm sure with this knowledge people will find other creative ways to apply this debuff to enemy players. While I did play around with this for a while after discovering it, I only did the "massive group of people applying self-damage bleed" idea once... but it does add up, and it's hilarious to see a confused level 100 frantically running around trying to find who's killing them after spending half an hour ganking level 96s.

Enjoy!

Bought this item and saved it to use in a raid.

It did not proc at all on my Warrior during the entirety of the raid.
Tried one in a dungeon with the same results- no effect on any mobs.

Flew out to Spires of Arak while I still had the buff on, attacking a mob there caused the debuff to appear.

Seems that the item is restricted to only work in Spires of Arak, despite it not saying so and the debuff appearing at all times.
