Only the first 20(I think) show under the boss' hp bar. The hard cap is 60, but you can't see all 60 at one time. So while you could see Bio 2 and1 but not miasma is because miasma was in the lower half of the debuffs in the median area where you can't see it, but is still ticking on them.Quote:

This is a problem that's been around for far too long, please address it.

06-10-2016, 10:29 AMCorfishIt's 30. The first 30 DoTs show underneath the bar, and if your debuffs are in the first 30 they will be at the beginning of the list. Everything tagged as 31 - 60 will NOT show up, even if you refresh it. If your DoT is tagged as 31, and you keep refreshing it before the timer runs out despite spot 30 being open, it will remain in the slot 31 area. It's really obnoxious. Of course, there's also the fact that as a SMN if too many debuffs are up you can literally lose nearly all of your potency because your DoTs simply won't apply =/Quote:

A simple fix to this is make your personal debuffs appear larger on the enemy status bar or make them glow. A lot of games with large group content do this.

Alright, you axe wielders, do as you please, do your own things, and I'll do mine.

While they're at it, it would sure be nice to have a way to make the focus target bar show only the stuff you put on the boss. I normally keep the tank as my primary target, put boss on focus, and use macros and such to attack the boss.

Of course, if I notice that my debuff gets overwritten every single time, I'll keep an eye on that and only apply my debuff if the NIN one looks like it's going to wear off (1-3 seconds left), otherwise switching out that combo for my Butcher's Block combo.
To return to the topic...
That wouldn't really help the issue, though. There's already a similar measure that's called "make your debuffs and dots come first in the debuff list". It doesn't apply when there are 30 debuffs already in the list, because yours wouldn't be on that visible list anyway. (In other words, it wouldn't be larger or glow either, since it's not there.) And if there are 60 debuffs/dots, your debuff or dot still wouldn't even take effect.Quote:

Only here it's, "We've boosted the potency of your dots now, so you'll do more damage... but chances are they won't even apply anyway if you have too many other dotters involved in the fight =D"
