Penance Brand of Dissipation is a spell that creates a brand at the target location, which when attached to an enemy adds Energy to the branded enemy and causes a pulse on activation, dealing damage to the branded enemy and nearby enemies.

Unlike the original skill, this transfigured version has a limited Attached duration. It repeatedly pulses on activation, increasing in size and damage with the amount of energy on the target. Compared to the original, it has lower damage and damage effectiveness, but more damage with Hits and Ailments to the branded enemy, scaling with the amount of energy added. The brand does not explode on reaching maximum energy, nor is it consumed at maximum energy.
Skill functions and interactions
Energy: Penance Brands of Dissipation apply Energy to targets they are attached to on each activation. Each activation of the brand causes an AOE pulse on the target, increasing in size and damage with each stack of energy, up to 20 energy.
Maximum Energy: Each time a Penance Brand of Dissipation activates, it adds one energy to the enemy, and then if that enemy has less than 20 energy, the brand gains one energy itself. The radius and damage bonus is scaled by the brand's own energy, not the energy on the attached enemy.[1]Brand RecallBrand RecallBrand, Spell Level: (1-6) Cost: (7-16) Mana Cooldown Time: 4.00 sec Can Store 1 Use(s) Cast Time: InstantRequires Level 16Recall your brands to you, detaching them from enemies and increasing attachment range until they next attach to an enemy.

Multiple brands: If two brands are attached to an enemy (via Runebinder), each brand adds its own Energy to an enemy, up to a sum total of 20 energy. Once a total of 20 energy is reached, the brands stop adding energy until one expires. This results in smaller than expected pulses. For example, if an enemy has two brands that have added 12 and 8 energy to it, neither one can reach 20 energy and will continue to pulse at a medium size until one expires. This does result in slightly more dps on the attached enemy, as the total dps of a brand dealing 720% more damage and a brand dealing 480% more damage is 8.2+5.8 = 14 times base damage, while a single brand with 20 stacks deals 13 times base damage. Attaching two brands also reduces ramp time, increasing the proportion of their attached time that the brands will be at maximum energy.
