Weapon durability in regards to debuffs

[ChaosEmblem]

I've heard a rumor that using a warlock's debuff skills will drain the rod's durability like mad.
What I want to know is, does the same thing happen even if i switch weapons? I'm a warrior/warlock, and everytime i switch back to my sword after casting debuffs, the sword's durability drops dramatically.

Note that I only cast debuffs on party mobs or giants.

So, is it the debuffs that drain the sword's durability, of is it the fact that I'm fighting giants/pt mobs?

thanks in advance,

I guess because the debuffs cause you didnt attack with it yet?

Sorry, I probably should have been a bit more clear.
I meant that the durability drops (rapidly) as I use the sword, after casting debuffs, while fighting the giant/pt mob.

I beleive it's the initial cast that affects the durability, and even if it didn't, i doubt weapon switching would work.

ok, thanks for the info.

I believe the debuffs don't drain your weapon, but the DoT and its status effects?

Debuffs dont affect durability much. Its curses. Because every curse hit is like a regular hit. Also notice after a curse, you will get like 2-3 extra hits so that drains the weps durability.

Thanks for repeating what I just said.
