Talk:Damage over time

I'm not sure whether health degeneration triggers effects that are caused by "taking damage". Anyone? --Tetris L 01:41, 13 Aug 2005 (EST)
 * Degen does not count as damage. --Fyren 03:49, 13 Aug 2005 (EST)
 * It does according to Master of Damage in Isle of the Nameless 84.26.132.106 01:04, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
 * He's the exception, not the rule. He's programmed to record all health lost, not just direct damage. Things like Reversal of Fortune don't trigger on degen, that's why it's not damage.
 * And yay for responding to 2 1/2 year old conversations. --Macros 01:49, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

category/quick reference
I was just wondering, isn't there a category/quick reference for DoT skills? If there isn't, I think it would be helpfull if made, but if it already exists, there's a bunch of skills that should have it listed on their page. --El_Nazgir 17:02, 19 January 2009 (UTC)


 * There's Direct DoT AoE skills quick reference, but it doesn't cover non-AoE skills (Seeping Wound e.g.) or non-direct (whatever that means), so a full DoT QR would probably be useful. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 17:38, 19 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I think non-direct would be Incendiary Bonds, since it has a timer. Same goes for, say, Destructive Was Glaive (somewhat) and Destruction, I guess. Otoh, they aren't DoT. I can't think of ANY indirect DoT in that manner. And I have no idea what else it would be. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG|Ohaider!]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  17:49, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
