*Slows the rate of Ravenous Beast ticking down as long as continuous damage is being done. This means that if you are mag dumping into a large opponent (i.e. a miniboss), the effective duration of Ravenous Beast is extended. A solid rule of thumb is that a single magazine being dumped a single enemy such as a miniboss will extend the duration by roughly 1 second. PVE example: assuming you have 0:05 seconds left and dump an entire magazine into a boss, you will reload and be ready to fire with approximately 0:04 seconds left, and the 0:03 seconds left the next time, et cetera. These numbers are not exact; but given the fact a normal mag dump at 900 RPM takes 0:02 seconds, you can think of this as '''effectively doubling the duration of Ravenous Beast''', but only as long as damage is being done. In practice, this means with even a little bit of training, Ravenous Beast will often last '''10 to 13 seconds''' in PVE. | *Slows the rate of Ravenous Beast ticking down as long as continuous damage is being done.

The second point is subtle: by doing damage to an enemy and swapping to a new enemy, time is added back to Ravenous Beast, up-to 0:03 seconds, and this applies for every new enemy you move your reticle to (or back to; hitting an enemy, hitting a new enemy, and then hitting the ''original'' enemy counts 3 times.) Thus, spraying into a set of enemies, or "sweeping" across a group of Minors and Elites, can extend the duration significantly, enough for another reload, a full 180 turn to find new enemies, turning back to the miniboss for some more damage, et cetera. AP Rounds stack as expected here too, meaning a small group of Minors can easily feed the entire 0:03 seconds with just a single magazine, provided you overpenetrate and hit more than one target. | The second point is subtle: by doing damage to an enemy and swapping to a new enemy, time is added back to Ravenous Beast, up-to 0:03 seconds, and this applies for every new enemy you move your reticle to (or back to; hitting an enemy, hitting a new enemy, and then hitting the ''original'' enemy counts 3 times.)

Capitalizing effectively, along with | Capitalizing effectively on Ravenous Beast, along with maintaining it, requires situational awareness in both PVE and PVP: so that no time is wasted "finding" an enemy to target, and that any time needed to acquire new targets is offset properly. Thus, practice is required: for map timings (crossings, distance engagements), spawn point predictions, and honing in on your particular build, both in PVE and PVP. | ||
When combined carefully, these can allow you to have extended sessions of Ravenous Beast active for well over 35 seconds in PVE, and enough for a single charge of Beast to complete a full Seventh Column in 6v6 PVP. | When combined carefully, these can allow you to have extended sessions of Ravenous Beast active for well over 35 seconds in PVE, and enough for a single charge of Beast to complete a full Seventh Column in 6v6 PVP. | ||
