Poison Dot Stacking

[Warderr]

Do post 51 BST poison dots stack? (i.e. Scorpion Venom and Turepta Blood?)

Yes - all our dots stack with each other.

Similarly if you have multiple Bsts (or other class) in a group their DoT damage will stack even if it is the same spell.

I was in a fear kite group and got tired of running behind the mobs.  I loaded 5 dots (scorp venom and down) and played shaman :)

Was in a group with both a Necro and Shaman in a ldon, it was too fast and furious to get any real research in, but something kept overwriting Scorp Venom.
I would get the 'has worn off message' after a few tics, no where near full duration.
A couple time it was blocked going in. 'would not take hold' message.

was mob curing itself?

That is odd Azmod. They changed this a year or two ago. All PC's should now be able to stack all DoT's on a critter now. It used to be that you could only stack one DoT of each type (poison, disease, etc) on a critter. Are you sure it wasn't your slow getting overwritten or blocked? I think that is most likely...

I've never had a problem with our poison-based DoTs stacking but I've had Plague (disease) blocked often when grouped with a Necro.
