Hypothetical dot question
If red99 goes with the 66% spell damage penalty that's commonly seen in PvP and also keeps the 66% penalty for dots on moving targets, will they stack and render dots largely ineffective in PvP?
It just struck me. Take something like Winged Death, a druid PvP staple, which ticks for 143. At 66% effectiveness (from the PvP spell penalty), that's 94 damage. If the moving penalty then applies, that's 62 damage, not exactly a threat at those levels.
If that's the case, dots will be largely useless in PvP. At the same time, I can't imagine that the devs will want 100% spell damage, nor would they remove the dot penalty since they presumably want to adhere to the classic mechanics. The only solution I can see is that they won't both apply at the same time.
