Dot Stacking - not a bug
 

Patch that occurred on March 7th near 2am has changed the way DoTs are working in a most terrible way.

Druid:Creeping Crud and Stinging swarm no longer stack as they are supposed to.

Necro: Ignite and boil no longer stack.

These are the only ones that I've seen/heard/found so far.

Please have this issue looked at and resolved as soon as possible.

Thank you

Dots not stacking after tonights patch
 

Stinging Swarm, Creeping Crud, Drones of Doom line of Druid Dot's are not stacking after the server came up after the patch.

I get "Your spell did not take hold"

Correct me if I am wrong, but I only think one of each type of DoT can be cast on a mob. For druids one magic and one fire, shamans one poison and one disease.

Druid dots not stacking
 

Morning there,

Just pulled a Grif in NK, it wouldnt let my magic series of DOTs stack (am a druid) and was stuck with the highest lvl variant - new patch? :eek:

>your spell did not take hold< error in red

Just snagged a HG and same issue

I know this was how classic was... but...


Riff.

Bah duplicate - i didnt see initially but DOT stacking has been reported separately already.

no if it is a straight dot (doesn't change ac or debuff) then they always stack

What he said. And they should stack between players too if they aren't.

I can't speak for necro dots, but I recall druids only being able to stack 1 dot of each spell line on a mob.

Working as intended.

What you had before, where every dot stacked with any other dot, was the bug.

Hmm. Did they change it on live down the line then? I was just playing on live a year ago and the Stinging Swarm/drones lines stacked.

edit....I want to clarify, multiple people casting the same dot never stacked but me soloing casting all of them from that line they would always stack.

This. It's not the same thing casting the same exact spell by 2 different people as casting different levels of the same spell.
