DOt dmg with snare/root

[kenzar]

wasnt dot dmg cut down to like 2/3 dmg if the target wasnt rooted in classic? i seem to remember something like that.

[dali_lb]

Yes it was. Only did full dmg if mob was rooted or feared (running away).

Not sure how long into classic this got introduced, but it surely was quite some time before Kunark release.

I'm almost positive this hit after kunark. I distinctly remember aoe kiting huge amounts of raptors on my bard in TD when this nerf came in and destroyed it.

Correction. Dot damage reduction was implemented september 13th 1999.

It was then taken back out for no damage reduction on July 24th, 2002 (a few months before planes of power)

Not so much "rooted" as "not moving", according to the above link.

Can confirm that feared and rooted mobs still took full damage if you want me to really dig

so and how is it now on this server? 1999 rules or 2002 rules?

[kenzar]

its 2002 rules, dont even know if they could change it if they wanted to really
