I’ve also noticed that there will only be one burning effect on a target, regardless of how many players are attacking it.
If there are 10 fire elementalists attacking the same target is only one burn ticking between all of them?
Oops, looks like firewall and Fire Shield tick for more but those are not effects applied to the target.
There are different severities of burned if burning is applied by different people with different stats. If you are only considering your own spells in a solo situation, duration is the only difference.
I stopped being dumb and just looked at the DOTs and compared the damage per second of tick and you’re right, they are all the same.
So, with that in mind, what is the point of the burn effect on Dragon’s Tooth as your periodic auto attacks with a scepter is plenty good enough to keep that DOT up?
Interesting. There seems to be some confusion. Some are saying that all burn effects are the same while the wiki source implies there are different severities of burn effects.
To me, it makes no sense that they are all the same. If that were the case, then there wouldn’t be much of a point of spells having lower front end damage and a DOT instead of just high front end damage. The reason for this is your auto attacks would apply just as good of a DOT.
Another question:
How does the game determine which fire effect is ticking and renewing? Let’s say you applies a weak fire DOT on the first cast (let’s say a simple auto attack), then you cast another spell that has a strong DOT effect. Does the strong DOT supersede the weak DOT or does it just refresh the weak DOT?
How does the game decide what is refreshed?
No, its good. Burn does huge damage. If it ticks away full duration thats massive. The only way its redundant is if the target is dead before it was done, but thats usually ok.
In pvp there are a lot of cleanses so you need to keep reapplying too.
Right, but a lot of the spells are low initial damage but adds a DOT. If all of your spells are similar, and the burning effects do not stack, than they are kinda redundant and to minimal effect. Right?
Well, that makes a lot of the fire spells kind of redundant, doesn’t it?
There is nothing on the icon of the conditions that indicate the different burning effects stack. All it does is refresh the timer of the icon.
So do the different burning effects stack or do they just refresh the burn timer?
Thanks for the answers.
There seems to be a low character cap in this game. You only get 5 slots and you can only play on one world. I’ve seen people say that they’ve played every single class to max level. Do they have multiple copies of the game or is there a way to increase your character cap? What’s the deal here?
