Bump to add some references.
Engulfing Darkness spell data:

and:

There are no references to duration being different on players.
Damage is reduced to 66% as per stated reductions on r99, but adding in a 50% reduction in duration results in quite significant reduction in damage.
Can a dev give an update if this is intentional, or if it is a bug? I don't really care as to when it's fixed, as if it's a bug I'm sure it will be eventually. But knowing which things are bugs, and which are non reported customizations (such as pet damage in PvP) is very useful.
