Game Mechanics: Druid Dots

[Silikten]

Currently, when one druid casts swarm on mob, the other druid's swarm will remove it and refresh it. I thought the separate dots would stack and dots which had previous lines the strongest one would kill.

[M.Bison]

If you have 5 druids attacking the same target, only 1 swarm dot will be active on the target at any given time. Not 1 per druid, just 1 total.

[Silikten]

Yes. I thought each druid's dot was coded separately so that you can land 5 stinging swarms. Otherwise, how useless are druids on raids as dps? Other than DDs

[evil]

that's how the game works. think of it like this...

level 40+ dot classes casting dots that tick for 100+ per tick
raid boss mobs have 32k hp

do the math because i don't care enough to

[Silikten]

Well, they begin to stack. When? I am unsure. In Velious for sure. So think of your math this way, flawed.

[Zigfreed]

They never stack on players only on raid targets. Not sure when they started to stack on raid targets either but I thought luclin?
