"In a future patch during this PTS cycle, we will be increasing the total damage of any Damage over Time abilities that were adjusted in PTS v5.2.0 by approximately 20% to reduce situations where many of the abilities felt difficult to maintain outside of nanosecond perfect rotation. This means there will be an overall reduction in damage from DoT abilities of approximately 33% compared to what is currently on the Live megaservers."
Dear Zos, are you aware that our main concern was cost of aoe dots? It's insane, increasing damage of aoe dots by 20% won't change anything. Still no reason to slot such expensive skills, well, except for mystic orb which is the only aoe dot that hasn't been touchet at all.

Mystic Orb will be touched, looking at the notes they will touch sets at skills not touched yet.
And yes, theres absolutely no reason to slot AoE dots with such expensive cost.0 -

AoE dots are dead, that's for sure. Except the ones that proc enchant from back bar. Even for AoE fights, you are better having 2-3 stamina DDs with Azureblight.0
