    This seems a glitch. Sent email to ask but didn't get reply. I think they are still figuring out?

    Anyways. CURSE IS NOT DOT. I don't know why this pet removes curse. :/

    Curse is d.o.t..

    Curse described in mages skills is "damage everytime they land an attack for 5 seconds"

    Thats Damage Over Time, correct me if I am wrong.

    By that logic anything can be considered damage over time. Aim shot deals massive damage instantaneously. The fraction of a second it takes to deal damage is a unit of time. If you split that instant into infinitely smaller ones, we can start defining almost any damage taken as damage over time (if server response were instanteous this would not be the case).

    What most people consider d.o.t is a consistant amount of damage over a consistant period of time, like the poison effect of nox bolt, the burn of fireball or the freezing damage of ice. Because curse is dependent on opponents skills, the damage and time when it is dealt will usually not be consistant.

    In this game, curse is considered DOT. Many times the new pet is helpful for the new or current content, and in this case, alleviating the pain of the curse mages. I don't think it should be removed/patched/fixed.

    Curse is not a dot. It only does dmg if the enemy does dmg to u,not a reoccurring dmg every tic like clock fireball or ice.

    Tyvm =]

    We have pets to remove curse already try nilbog or misty ^_^ learn how to deal with problems without trying to add everything to one pet lol.

    Imo curse should not be removed using glowstik

    It's classified as a DoT in skill description, therefore glowstik AA will remove it. Although, since no sorcerer uses curse in PvP, this shouldn't be much of an issue.

    In PvE, this is useful and intended to remove the mage curse.

    The English is simple in the skill description. If it does not fit the description that one thinks how the skill should work does not mean that Glowstik's AA is bugged.

    Rather, this thread title should be changed to: "How I Think Glowstik AA Should Function"

    "Causes them to receive damage every time they land an attack"
    Doesn't sound like a "dot" to me tbh

    It's more so a debuff if anything but it's sole purpose is to reflect damage, it doesn't apply a dot

    Not really, was just wondering. I always thought that curse isn't really considered as dot.

    Uhhmmm lol. I'm guessing you haven't played mage in twink.
    Mage lvl 25 below uses curse. Glowstik's AA- Slows enemy, toxic pools( op stun too), buff allies with a shield (it heals, idk how much per tick, dmg reduction and dot immunity). So FB, Ice, clock(no one use in pvp) are DoT and CURSE = AA DoT immunity.And the AA removes curse? Dayum. I'm seeing useless mages in *Twinks* now.

    *Endgame players don't need to reply on this thread since no one use curse in endgame(This is not for endgame PvP). I'm pretty sure this thread are meant for Twink PvP.

    If a dot attack is reflected, I'd consider it dot damage lol. If a cursed rogue uses noxious bolt on the mage, they will be destroyed by the dot reflected from the original attack.

    If really curse is dot than curse should work as dot. Unfortunately not.

    Btw you guys will see lots of curse mage in level 61.

    Curse more effective than fb imo in 61.

    Just buff curse lol.

    The dot is reflected but curse itself shouldn't be considered as a dot
