    I thought it was a debugg and by virtue of the buff/debuff system could no longer stack?

    If that was the case, the way they have it worded in the patch notes makes no sense. They first said they made heal debuffs multiplicative so that you could no longer be 100% heal debuffed, but if the new buff/debuff system applied to heal debuffs that would NEVER be possible. Second, if the buff/debuff system was in place, why call out specifically that you made it so meatbag cat's don't stack with other heal debuffs?



    Given their careful wording.... it seems pretty obvious. Unless a ZOS employee would like to clarify : @ZOS_BrianWheeler

    The title is mostly a joke because certain players are famous for abusing heal debuff stacking and they are all templars, but my point is across the board for all heal debuffs.

    I would ask @ZOS_GinaBruno for clarification as I see her poking around more.

    Thanks :) hopefully we get an answer, been pushing this since one of their beta notes made me worried by using the same kind of language while I wasn't able to test if it was actually stacking. If you take it at the wording.... I am worried

    We just tested this and it doesn't appear as though Dark Flare is stacking. When you repeatedly cast it on an enemy, it will just refresh each time.

    Is there something else we should be looking at?

    No thats alright, thank you for the quick response :). Clearly just a misunderstanding on the wording then.

    I have to say again; I am very satisfied with the communication the dev team does here. Seen people knock it, but compared to the MMOs I have played, I would say you guys actually might be the first where communication will be a positive mark toward continued support where others it has been enough reason alone to leave.

    Thanks for the quick clarification Gina.
