Game Mechanics: DoT Damage is being displayed

[Sunderfury]

Not sure if this screenshot shows evidence, but Necro has 2 Bonds of Death spells wear off (lifetap DoT).

At one point it shows Filastil (a necro) beginning to cast a spell, then there are 2 wear off messages from Bond of Death, then Filastil says 'VoS stuck'.

Looking up necro spells, I'm guessing that is 'Venom of the Snake', according to wiki a 4.6 second casting time. Seems a long span of time for a message to receive.

Regardless, even if the Bond of Death is wearing off, I am assuming the final tick processes and you would have received the final 'Damage DoT' messages for each of those ticks. I don't see those here.

Full list of the screen archives is here, but clearly shows mid 2000ish posts of raids and the like, mentions of 'exploring kunark' etc.
