| Summary | 0025221: (All Classes) DOT effects snapshot main stat at the moment of application instead of dynamically updating with current main stat |
|---|
| Description | Damage over Time (DoT) abilities currently snapshot the character’s main stat at the moment the DoT is applied. If a temporary main stat buff (e.g. Intellect) is active during application, the DoT retains the increased damage value even after the buff expires.
However, if the DoT is applied before the main stat buff is activated, the damage does not increase while the buff is active. This indicates that DoTs snapshot main stat on application rather than dynamically recalculating damage per tick based on current stats.
This behavior appears to affect all classes. |
|---|
| Steps To Reproduce | Go to a Target Dummy.
Apply a DoT without any active main stat buff.
Observe the baseline tick damage (example: 397).
Activate a temporary main stat buff (e.g. Intellect).
Apply the same DoT while the buff is active.
Let the buff expire while the DoT is still ticking.
Observe the tick damage after the buff has expired.
Additional comparison test:
Apply the DoT first.
Then activate the main stat buff while the DoT is already active.
Observe that the tick damage does not increase. |
|---|
| Additional Information | Expected Result
DoT tick damage should dynamically update based on the character’s current main stat. When a main stat buff expires, tick damage should decrease accordingly. When a main stat buff is activated during an already active DoT, tick damage should increase.
Actual Result
DoTs applied during a main stat buff retain the increased damage even after the buff expires (example: 427 instead of 397).
DoTs applied before activating the buff do not benefit from the buff while active.
This confirms that DoTs snapshot main stat at the moment of application. |
