Hope that I'm not being redundant, but I didn't see a post about this.


Is anyone else having an issue with things not dying when hit with the pft... more specifically, dying and then hopping back up? I've found that I have to switch to a pistol to finish them off. specifically, it seems to be happening with NPCs. Am I just going mad?

YES. I just went back in and tested it again, and it is happening...thought something was funny last night when I first noticed it.



You shoot them, you see the flame animation on them, they 'incap' and hop right back up...take burn dmg, incap, repeat....but don't die...you have to special them again (only way I've found to perma-death one).



Kind of annoying in multiple-target situations...you think the one is dead, move on to the next one, and he's back up shooting at you...



Good catch, Colonel.

StarNick,



All the other profession correspondants have been making focused "gimme 3 questions about the CU for XXX Profession' threads...can we get this question included in the Commando que's for the Devs?



This is important.

You are seeing this because fire no longer incaps. It works like disease and poison and stops at 1 health point now.

This happens with the HLBC too, it seems what's happening is that the fire DoT sometimesincaps the target, then they get back up when the incap timer wears off. When I hit 'em with a blast after getting up, they usually die then and there, unless the DoT ticks again first.

DOTs may not kill but should'nt the damage taken from getting hit by a FT still kill?


the weird thing in this case is that i have no problem incaping people in PvP. its only PVE stuff that has this issue.
