What do the abbreviations mean?
Hey all,
What do all the abbreviations mean? I'm kinda newish to this and still don't get it. What does AoE mean or DoT or stuff like that?
THanks!

✭✭✭✭✭AOE = area of effect. Means a skill/ability that is targeted at an area (usually ground based) instead of a specific mob. Also (mis)used for designating any multitarget effect.
DOT : damage over time. Some skills do all their effect at once, other skills have an effect like X damage per second for Y seconds. Those are called DOTS (or HOTS - heal over time - if they're healing skills).
You can ask your friend Google : those abbreviations are not ESO-specific, they're afaik widely used in the MMO-universe. Even maybe the entire gaming culture.
