1) Does the min/max damage of the FL you're use affect the strength of the Burn dot?
2) Does the damage and wounds the Burn DOT do count towards group looting rights?

1) Yes. The min/max damage of the FT decides the amount of damage the special does. The strength of the DoT is a percentage of the amount of damage the special does.


2) No.

1) From a post i made some time ago.
The fire dot for a Flamethrower attack is 10% of the initial damage before armor and resists, ie10 % of the damage in your combat log, this damage does not scale with BF.There is also adot giving the target wounds which is 2% of the initial damage, the wounding dotscales with BF. The flame dot lasts for 5 or 6 ticks ie 50 or 60 seconds (strange that, i was expecting it to be the same all the time).


A good guess (it is my guess so i am a bit biased) would bethat the wound part of the DOT is increased by1% for every point of battle fatigue.

Some examples:


10.000 damge in spam, 0 BF. The tick will be 1000 damage and 200 wound.


10.000 damage in spam, 100 BF. The tick will be 1000 damage and 400 wound.


10.000 damage in spam, 200 BF. The tick will be 1000 damage and 600 wound.


10.000 damage in spam, 1000 BF. The tick will be 1000 damage and 2200 wound.


The numbers might be a bit off but for all you commandos whohave huntedKrayts will know that the wound is approximately 2/3 of the HAM bar when the beast dies (if you only use the FT).


For people interested in math the formula for the wound would in this case be: Wound=Damage in spam*0.02*(100+BF)/100



2) In my experience the damage part counts toward loot rights but teh wound part doesn't. Since the wound part is the biggest it is hard to get loot rights as a commando.

3) Blind, Stun, Intimidate etc affects the strenght of your DoT. Both on you and on target.
