You will NOT tick for 1k on a disease UNLESS you have over 100 BF.
Dont believe me? Test it out. Disease CREATES BF, so the first tick may not be that bad, the second tick will lay you out.
That is correct, having Battle Fatique will subsquencely increase the tick on the disease. However, according to the poster's message above, the pet also received a higher than abnormal tick on disease, I have not tested disease on Pets and therefore can not comment on the Pet and its Battle Fatique.
With that said, do take into consideration that disease will only tick until +1 so for instance, if you have 1100 mind and you get hit with a powerful disease for 1099, and it drop your mind pool to 1, then you take moun, brandy, and crepe to boost your mind, the disease will not tick again, ever.
So it is quite possible for people to run around with a lot of mind wound and yet not incap even with both poison and disease. Try it out, you'll see what I'm referring to.
They very well could have had high BF as it was about mid battle this happened and may have even died and been rez'd a few times. And they were not identical ticks of 1100, but that was their mind stat max, I was too general, but they were both over 1k and neither had any mind left after the tick (I do not know how much mind damage they had before the tick, but their minds were almost to full).
The battle did not have a resolution and will probably occur under simlar circumstances again today, if I see this happen again I will getsome screens. I have already seen similar posts on the GCW board regarding 1k disease from other players so hopefully I am not imagining things. ![]()

At a rather large raid last not I watched in horror as a group of people got hit with a 1100 mind disease from a combat medic, you guys don't need to be hit with a nerf bat, but a metal bat with somespikes on it would be about fair.
It was actually about 1230 a tick, as I saw it tick onsomeones pet thatgot hit as well as the people, but it can't do more damage than a players mind can be. And yes that is disease, not poison. I really hope it was someone that either got some really rare loot or was expoiting because if this becomes the norm, I can see the end of PvP for this game.
1100 area disease, I have yet to see that. Are you certain it's not poison? Perhaps you should take a screen shot next time.
Yes I am certain it was disease, and it wasn't just happening on our side, but on the otherside of the battle as well, 1k+ disease was landing on them too when I was talking to someone after the fight. And I will be sure to get a screen of it next time, I was just in shock that I didn'tthink at that time to get one heh.
I personally didn't get hit with one of those bad boys and I could not tell if it was AoE or single due to people already being damaged, and not all players have their mind stats maxed out. I did see it tick on 2 people for 1100 though, and then I watched the pet as it ticked while I wasmeditating. I believeticks on players are for the same as pets/npc's, if I am incorrect please let me know. I did however get hit with a 670ish diseasetwo times while fighting, and even that is a bit crazy.

good to see they have finally decided to address the fact that our DPS is the lowest in the game...

Yeah I've been lucky enough to get a bunch of spider venom from the cave, but why would you take 400 power venom and then give it normal uses?
Beacause I didn't intend to use it in PVE, I planned to use it in PVP. 80m range coupled with high damage is devastating.

1000k tick every 6 seconds * 20 people = highest DPS in entire game.
