xX_Relicz_Xx Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 So you want to make my Lethality Sniper useless? No thanks. DoTs do damage, damage interrupts captures. simple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellison Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 DoTs take a bit to activate. I've lost alderaan before more than one because my dots didn't activate on the sith ticking the cannon in time. Your thread is invalid. Teamwork > dots.

edazilaxam Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 There are plenty of ways to stop capping.. but to prevent it whilst dead is not the way it should be.. err hello they died.. they failed.. they flopped.. they probably sucked why should they be still be able to defend a objective after death.. the idea makes no sense and the only people that enjoy this out of order advantage are most probably DoT users themselves.. very selfish. So no its obviously not fine, need teamwork to attack? then u should need teamwork to defend not some silly dot, should work both ways. Im quite sure that eventually they will adjust this.

Roak Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 1. teamplay 2. some classes have dots, some have cleanses, some have grapples and leaps saying dots shouldn't affect caps is as dumb as saying grapples/leaps shouldn't be in huttball.

LordSemaj Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) The idea to have dots interrupting objective capping imo is the most backward idea ever.. you clearly beat the opponent who is defending the point you want, therefore deserve to cap after he has been killed.. if he hasnt called for help or his team has not responded then they should lose watever objective it is.. seeing as all you people are pushing a point through saying its team game dispell others and dont run solo.. then surely defending shouldnt be a solo job either where u can put a cheap DoT onto the other player cause you just epically failed to defend a point and are incapable of calling for help (or maybe you do.. after its been capped) or your team isnt a team at all.. just my opinion.. Do you play a necromancer usually? Because you totally pulled a NecroThread. This thread is over a month old.

Evilpingu Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 DoTs are fine. If nobody was able to ever get through the doors in Voidstar or cap a point in Alderaan then I would agree with you. Fact is, games right now (at least on my server) are always close affairs. Both sides get DoTs, both get dispels, I don't see the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formulka Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) Yeah as it is super easy to keep the dots on everyone around, just let the guy with no dots on him cap if you have no cleanser around. If a guy is dotting everyone around he isn't killing anyone, so just put him down with his weakened team and cap. Next week we will have people actually moaning about gunslingers being OP, mark my words. // also dots screw up soft CCs, if he dots everyone, no one is CCd more than 3 seconds - there is ups and downs in everything Edited February 6, 2012 by Formulka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aragiel Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 DOTS should DEFINITELLY interupt you while trying to cap a point BUT all DOTS should be cleansable - which im not sure its true.. also AOE DOTs should not be placed on ground but on PEOPLE / and be able to cleans them..

xX_Relicz_Xx Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Im no expert on your class but im sure thats not the only damage ability on your bar... I know, but Lethality focuses on dots and abilities related to them. Making it so dots dont stop capping would just limit us even more, imo.

oursacrifice Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 why not? is a dot not damage? the capture/arm timers are balanced around dots. No they aren't. On civil war the edge turret caps aren't even short enough to complete before someone takes a speeder right back to your face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herethos Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 They should interrupt imo, but they however shouldn't cause objective interrupts when absorbed by damage shield i.e sorc/sage bubbles. So annoying to see absorbed and have it interrupt defuse/planting/capping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On civil war the edge turret caps aren't even short enough to complete before someone takes a speeder right back to your face. The speeders also don't drop you on top of the point. Stuns work. Solo caps should not. Team game. Yadayadayada. Also - THIS THREAD IS OLD! NECRO TOPIC Edited February 6, 2012 by LordSemaj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both sides get DoTs, both get dispels, I don't see the problem? i dont think the vast majority of players know about just how OP setting a dot out on some1 is before they die defending.. i dont see it very often but as soon as it catches on and every dot dealing class begins using this method.. well it would be very frustrating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esmie Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 DoT is a damage.There is a counter - purge.So DoTs SHOULD interrupt capping.Why you guys always want everything be easier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tetrablade Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 If my team is busy defending and I go take a node by myself because there is only one defender, the dot interrupting me long enough for him to respawn, come back, and dot me again is ridiculous, there is no justification for it. Jugg doesn't have one. So you are mad that one person is able to defend a node in a map that only has 8v8 and three nodes where the majority of the players fight in the center and can only afford a single defender for their likely only one other node? *breaths deeply* Why the audacity!
