He's not talking about dq.

I think what he meant to say is that when you receive damage to a joint,then their is a higher probability that the joint will dm upon next time,and this probability would decrease with frames/time.

For exampleamage that can be received before dm:x=100
If he gets a hit then x<100,then x starts increasing till it reach some maximum.
He wants to see x when he hovers over the joint.

Um,that's how I thought it worked,excuse me if I'm wrong(God knows I can be xD).
