Im not seeing this in the dev post...is this true?
3) DOT weapons are going bye bye (hooray!) and the only DOT will be from profession specials?
It is NOT true until a RED name posts it......but expect some balance done at the very minimum because we all know how unbalancing the DoT weapons can be....
There was certainly no overt statement to this effect so I am reading between the lines. They did say that changes would be made to all existing and new weapons and that all weapons would do either kinetic or energy damage. There would also be 'extra' categories for heat, cold, electricity and acid. I was just thinking that due to there being no mention of disease, poison etc. MAYBE this points to a phasing out of such weapons. Of course not of it is confirmed but I got a sneaking feeling that their omission of any mention about DOT weapons may indicate that they will be phased out. Sure its a baseless assertion but thats the impression I got reading between the lines. As for stims, they clearly stated that there would be some level of stim use possible without medic abilities. However if its only stim B's then I'm keeping my medic abilities which allow use of Stim E's that have a rating of MU 40

I expect the DoTs that affect the HAM bars that will no longer be attackable will go bye bye.. I expect there to remain the Health DoT...
Hooray for the thought of no more mind DOTs!! Gotta wait for the red letter guys to tell us I guess

gimme armor and i can do it unbuffed.
i feel this whole CU thing is spiralling down into a POS game. sorry but noone can convince me otherwise.
At least CH will be popular again
I hope they jack the high-end loot drop rate throught the F&@#*&&^ roof.
