Retribution with self-damage abilties

[Urocyon]

So Paladins get a passive called Retribution that increases the damage of your next attack after you have taken damage. Can you trigger this ability yourself if you injure yourself with abilities like Deleterious Alacrity of Motion or the scepter modal? If so, it might be interesting to use this with a more backline positioned paladin.

DoT doesn't trigger retribution.

What about scepters with Destructive Channeling?

[Urocyon]

Ok I had some time to test it out. Destructive Channeling and Mortification of the Soul doesn't seem to trigger Retribution either. That's a shame. Could have opened some interesting avenues to explore

is the stacking a persistent bonus until combat ends or does it reset after every attack from you?

You can use party members to build up retribution before entering combat for stronger first strike though.
