@Celestalon Ok, I think I'm using a different definition of the term. Thanks for the answer.
Haste breakpoints are gone because the duration of a DoT no longer changes with haste. Instead, partial ticks at the end.

-
@Celestalon Does this create DoT overlap? i.e Refresh as early as possible so that you benefit the most from no loss at Xsec/X% ? -
@Celestalon or does refreshing add to duration? -
@_JoeShanahan No. Example may help: DoT lasts 10sec. You cast at t=0. If you refresh at t=8 or t=9 or t=10, it ends at t=20. See [Pandemic]. -
@Celestalon With the removal of reforging, that definitely makes sense given how much emphasis is placed on breakpoints. -
@Celestalon So it’s still possible to have new ticks with enough haste, but between adding new ticks the gain is more linear? -
@DaikatsuCTR Completely linear, not just 'more' linear. So 27.83% haste = 27.834% more ticks. (Number is meaningless, just made it up.) -
@Celestalon Got it. Makes sense now. It doesn’t get change haste/tick interaction, but makes haste worthwhile between adding ticks. Yay! -
@Celestalon Aaah got it, thanks. Sounds good. Assuming this goes live, will we know what X is? -
@_JoeShanahan Of course. I'm just saying 'X' right now because we haven't decided what X is (or whether it's in sec or %). -
@Celestalon I actually kinda like this. -
@Celestalon Is Ignite changing with these new dot mechanics? (I know it doesn't currently work like a traditional dot.) -
@Celestalon Would this apply to things like Healing Stream Totem and Healing Rain also (assuming some solution to Conductivity)? -
@bjvandrews Healing Rain, yes. Healing Stream may be a little more complicated, due to the totem involved, but we're going to try.
-
@Celestalon Awesome, thanks :) -
@Celestalon I asume the same happens with HoTs? -
@DaikatsuCTR Make sure to add this to the show notes to explain to the confused (e.g. Me) -
@Celestalon@Sonrilol Sacred Shield may still have some weirdness/break points depending on how you handle that last tick. -
@TheckPhD@Celestalon@Sonrilol Seems like it only would have that behavior if you don't refresh early enough to take advantage of Pandemic.
