AlekHed Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 (edited) Hello! I play 39 lvl Sentinel Watchman. Can somebody explain how does catharize DoT spread via Force Sweep works? It happens eventually for me. For example, I see 3 trash mobs and one moderate mob. I target moderate mob and do Force Leap -> Overload Saber -> Zealous Strike -> Cauterize -> Force Sweep now I am trying to avoid fight and wait what happens. After ~5 seconds only moderate mob is burning. Trash mobs have 10-30% life after my Force Sweep (so I need to attack them again) and thats all. What am I doing wrong? Sometimes it work well sometimes not. I can't figure out why?! Edited September 13, 2015 by AlekHed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaos_KidSWTOR Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 If the target that had Cauterize on it dies, the DoT spread does not work. It's as simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_Mcturney Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 If the target that had Cauterize on it dies, the DoT spread does not work. It's as simple as that. And this sir is a bug, or should be considered one, cause the skill doesn't say "it spreads dots, EXCEPT if the target dies" or something. I also have problems spreading dots, in walkers fight, i try to spread the dots to the droid Unit 1 summons, but sometimes it doesnt work, even if i have just used cauterize AND the droid didn't die. I hate this system, it's so annoying and hard to use effectivelly. =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and that's problably caused by something stupid such as a bad hierachization/organization of events. I can see the typical mistake, of attacks triggering death before the spread effect, which also trigger a purge, which then make the spread check to not find anything to spread.
