Thanks for the thoughtful replies. Has anybody else looked at the effect of acid blade on channeling caps?

This is an outrage. I'm afraid if this bug continues it will cause scores of players to unsub.

To make sure I understand this, ALL dots and dot effects (reapplied poison from operative, the half as much damage one) should not interrupt a cap? And the OP is saying that Acid Blades dot effect is preventing the cap ONLY in Ancient Hypergates? I will try to do some testing if the game allows me into that scenario.

remove acid blade, problem solved - Ops are OP and anyway, they didn't get any nerf in 1.6, so it's about time ...

But if you do that there would literally be no DPS tree left for operatives!

There would just be a healing tree and two joke trees.

Anybody else noticed this? Does acid blade count as direct damage? Or do other dots also break caps in Hypergates?
Hey folks, just wanted to step in here to let you know that this is, in fact, a bug that we will be fixing in a future patch. Apologies for any inconvenience.
