ETA on dot nerf?

[loramin]

When it comes to "exploits", there's no predicting what will happen, because the staff decides some "exploits" are game-breaking ones that need to be fixed unclassically, and other ones are "classic features".

This one seems to be in the "it's an exploit but the P99 team likes it, so they won't nerf it (ie. feature)" category, and so it seems like it will get fixed in about 6 months ... but again, tomorrow Nilbog could be like "it's not classic, it's an exploit", and there seems to be no way whatsoever to predict what he'll decide on any particular exploit/feature.

Seems like you worked really hard to wedge your agenda rant in here.

What are you even talking about? There's nothing about an exploit here.

Idk how people manage to bring "SeLeCtIveLy ClAsSic" into every topic.

Has anyone actually tested it tho?

I get the feeling — completely anecdotal from some kills — moving and not feared does lower DOT damage currently.

That's my suspicion too. But no I haven't tested it personally.

I don't think many (or any) of the mechanics changes during vanilla are coded yet.

Higher necros or shamans should be able to tell with Poison dot, has a high tick dmg.

Test in a duel?

Are you sure green doesn't already have this? I don't think my snared mobs are taking full ticks of DoT dmg if they aren't feared.
