    Isn't burning a passive off of flame enchants?

    many DK abilities can do it to, something about a stacking of burn damage bugs out and causes uber ticks causing basicly insta kill flame ticks
    PLEASE REPLY TO ME WITH @dsalter otherwise i'm likely to miss the reply if its not my own thread

    Ive stacked fire and flame enchants on different weapons but I haven't seen this in my damage meters. The closest thing to it was tonight I critted ten times in a row with burning ticking for 100 per tick on a sorc and said to my bf wow..I've never seen it tick like that.

    Let me carify that. I haven't stacked enchants..afaik its impossible..but I use spells that cause fire crits..Im a dunmer.. I use flame enchants bla bla bla etc.and I'm a DK.

    I can't say what it is, but it's not a burning stacking issue. From what I know it's a game mechanic bug dealing with certain spells. You're not necessarily dying from burning, but that's what shows up on the recap by default to explain the death.

    IT'S NOT a multi dot stack thing. It's one person, hitting me once, for 1700 with burning

    I am spell resist capped

    I died in <2s

    It wasn't from lash/whip/talons/blah

    hmm wonder if it has to do with that light attack. I have never dealt this kind of damage or seen it that I know of..Were they using a staff?

    Ha! This happened last night to a guildie in my group. Did enough dmg to kill all 4 of us but he was the only unlucky one.

    Pro Tip: Form a group of 4 and hang out with the zerg. Now you can claim you only run with 4. I'm l33t

    Theres just no legit way anyone can get 1 proc, 1 tic of it at that, of burning to deal that much damage.

    If you get killed by a burning effect that high, make sure you report that person. Cant even see this being a game mechanic bug, could possibly be a hack.

    Well.... Not that ZoS is going to do anything about them anyways.... SS the death recap and post it, like few have done.

    Is the recap reporting burning the way it reports Soul Assault (adds up all the ticks and lists only the total amount)?

    Burning shouldn't be able to do that much even with all 3 tics you can get with it. its a damage over 3 seconds skill. My burning effect pcrocs, as a dunmer dragon knight, do like 76 dmg a tic. This is with the trait giving 66% more damage to burning effect. Its not supposed to be 1700+, ever.

    I think it's more a reporting damage bug than an absolute dmg dealt issue. I have seen other weird attack reports in the death recap - especially when I'm getting healed thru some of the damage. If the same attack keeps hitting you - and you are getting healed - but not to full - I think it reports the damage as one lump sum instead of the ticks of the damage.

    This is not only about the death recap though.
    People have been reporting getting killed within two seconds with the only attacks on death recap showing up "Light Attack" and "Burning".

    Had I had time to heal myself this might be true.

    It was as if he oneshotted me with a light attack animation. Guy casts light attack animation, I am dead. He hit me once, total, that is it.

    I think it's a hack, not a bug. There was a guy 1 shoting everyone with light staff attacks in Wabba a couple weeks ago. All he would do is light staff attack and you'd take approximately 3k damage from 'burning' instantly.

    Like I said it's a game mechanic bug that anyone can take advantage of. By this point anyone using it is probably intentional, and I'd suggest reporting them. However, it is something that can be blindly stumbled upon. There's just an error in the recap reporting the damage as being from burning.

    Yea.... ok. So the damage from the same person does just so happens to show up as a huge burning hit followed by a light attack on multiple occasions.

    You don't have to believe me, but what I'm telling you is more than speculation. It's been replicated as you can see by it spreading now. Not like I'm going to post a 1-shot exploit on the forums.

    And the one from caltrops and bat sward are just a combined representation of multiple attacks that just so happened to show up as caltrops damage.

    Thats why with the caltrops one, you see a field of dead, all simultaneously killed by single attacks from one person that just so happened to only show up as caltrops.

    I mean, wtf.... See all those dead around? Took 1s, they all also think WTF....

    In case you haven't seen it or need a reminder. See all the dead behind the black? sorry that is not what you are trying to make it out to be.

    Regardless it needs to be fixed. This is a huge balance issue even if it's working as intended.
