Dots no longer helpful in defense???????

What a load of utter crap. Most games taking damage in any form (dot included) prevents interaction with objects or activates pushback. The idea is that in a MULTIPLAYER game, the TEAM that works best TOGETHER wins. Therefore if your team is not actively removing or preventing damage, they deserve to loose.

I shouldn;t even have to point out how this is a vital part of a healer/support role in a team PvP battle, and that removing it really suggest that these aspects are not important or even required. Now if we can just remove CC we can turn PvP into a boring DPS race, in which case - bugger actually playing it, can they just work out my teams DPS and compare it to the other teams and give us a win or loss - would really save me time in getting that shiny gear that makes me a much much more skilled player....

ahh damn - my sarcasm key got stuck down somewhere through that....brb going to fix it....

Which are mutally exclusive, since one is a capstone ability. Unless I missed one in my last trawl (possible, since I was only looking for DoT abilities that had no innitial damage that time)

But, as I've said before, this is a welcome change. Just try not to spread misinformation (assuming I'm right, and I may not be)

You ignored literally everything I said and decided your opinions take precedent over logic. Nothing you say is valid anymore.

Being able to dot up everyone with 18 Second Dots, dying then coming back with their dots still ticking is really retarded.

Not using a purge ability is even more so.

So is letting one person DoT up your entire team. Someone earlier was saying it was OP for one person to DoT 5 people on their team sitting at a Voidstar door, but that literally means that 5 people let ONE person sit there, shoot at them, for 7.5 seconds without doing anything about it.

It also means people have no idea that they can just cleanse 1 person to solve the problem. I vote they implement something punishing those who have no idea how to cleanse

Healer hits 1 button, problem solved. Also, if your entire team lets someone sit there and throw up their 18 second DoT that many times, you just might have other issues

Hahaha! I posted a thread about dots should not be capable of such a thing and received quite a few negative responses and positive ones to. To all of those naysayers: Screw you, this is a fantastic change, now go choke on it.

Good logic bro, got me convinced...use logic please, it makes what you say actually matter
