Deathflow

[thatperson]

is there a reason Deathflow is added last in calculations when adding it first would give the maximum bonus with lesser stats? is this intentional to require more diverse builds or is this the only thing in the game that doesnt go in the order at which it adds the most damage?

do dots really need a buff? lol

i remember this being changed before to make it cause the most possible damage this isnt about a DoT buff this is about a skill working as it was supposed to

The original change, as I recall, came about because the more stats you focused on int/cnc, the more you'd benefit from the change. Glitchless was requiring dotters to have more offense as opposed to defense iirc.
