Spells: Winged Death and Druid Magic Dots

[Jomar]

Uthgaard: Winged Death flagged dotstackingexempt. Test it and report any bugs.

Cast Winged Death: Lands.
Cast Drifting Death: Spell did not take hold.
Cast Drones of Doom: Spell did not take hold.

Cast Drones of Doom: Lands.
Cast Winged Death: Lands; Drones of Doom has worn off.

Think this is the same as it was before but I haven't tried stacking magic dots since Kunark launch.

K then there isn't proper handling for the field. Thanks.

The problem still exists as of 3May. I just returned, went to do a little leveling on my druid to get back in the swing of things. Root/rot isn't an option so I will return when it is fixed.

I honestly don't understand what all the pissing and moaning about not being able to root 'n' rot is. I solo in KC all the time. I use 1 DoT and can basically med back that much mana in the time it takes to wear off. I might finish mobs with ~5% less mana than I started with and I am ready to pull again immediately. If I have clarity, I cast both BoR and WD and do the same with basically the same results.

Now I didn't play a druid on live, so I can't say whether or not things are working as they should, but to say that you can't root 'n' rot mobs is just silly.

I know it wasn't mentioned in the patch notes, but with the dot movement/duration changes I figured I'd check to see if this was ninja fixed as well.

So just confirming that after the 5/29 patch, Winged Death and Drones of Doom/other Druid magic dots are still not stacking.

disappointed to ding 53 and find out that winged death's stacking is still not fixed, even though you had plenty of time to "un-fix" back to classic the root/snare stacking and dot damage to moving mobs.

seems like a beneficial fix that is classic, for druids takes a back seat even when the things that were changed last patch are temporary (i.e. get undone at some point in velious) anyway.

Resolved with the 6/13/11 patch (or at least Winged + DD/Winged + DoD worked). Good work Uthgaard and other developers.
