Spells: Patch v52 Dot Damage reduced?

[Conarc]

Since patch 52 dropped this morning, I have noticed a couple things in regards to DoTs. 1st was the apparent intended DoT readout being removed from the chat log. Saw a post form admin answering that saying 'working as intended and will remain'.

not a big fan, but if its classic i can work with it, after all game isnt re-made just for me :P

Second issue is the obvious reduction in DoT damage on a ROOTED mob. past 2 days i have been farming same spot, same thing over and over, and today i have to spend roughly 1.5-2x more mana per mob to kill it root rotting.

Is this intended? was it intended just for green? or is this also going to be a blue thing too?
