DOT procs

[chensin]

Im not impressed 8( Was under the impression that DOT procs with different base damage types would stack..anyone found this to be the case?

Tested (in pve) and my two wont...

weapon 1 - player crafted, alchemy dot (matter base)
weapon 2 - Galla Vine wrapped Piercer, dot (energy base)

They will both go off quite happily, but the second one will overwrite the first..which is a bit disappointing Sort of makes my plans for wild arcana and viper not so appealing.

they should stack. on pvp i saw caby, manament and shaman stack 3ae dots on me ;o

ps: theres also a fire dot proc from df

I've got the same weapons, with the same results sadly

I did some testing with my ancient stag spine bow which procs a 'body' damage dot, and that gets overwriten by my weapons too :/

The only case I've heard it (supposedly) work for was the broodmother fang + player made angled dagger... but those are the same procs as I have, just on different hands :s

I'm a bit confused... maybe there are combos that work, but the damage types being different is definatly just a myth. I've tested body, energy and matter based procs and they all overwrite eachother

I know that my Heat based dot proc and dot proc (crafted) both stack although I aint checked it since patch.

The whole point of ppl speccing for WA/Viper was the fact that a NS can land like 5 dots in a fight, and I certainly read of this happening on US boards.

imo ghey
