SMN DoTs not registering on Behemoth?

[Geracia2]

Ok, so last night Behemoth popped, mad rush, lots of people.
I Throw my dots and start hitting fester. I see it doesn't have an effect the first time. I realized that my Dots were not on him. I run my dots again and notice, now only bio 1 is on him.

I have it set so that i only see my adverse effects on a Mob, no one else's. same with animations/damage/text. I see nothing of what anyone else is doing, except the buffs on my party window.

So my question is this. Is there a limit to how many DoTs can be on a mob? Are mine being kicked off?

If he or odin pops again i'll make sure to test and get a video.

It's just lag because of the sheer number of people.... Happens when I hit up Odin or Raumuh every time

There is a limit on how many dots can be on a mob. The limit is absurdly high, but it's easily hit on Odin/Behem.

This. There is a limit. SMN (and SCH to an extent) are the worst classes to bring to Odin or Behemoth for these reasons. I suggest bringing BRD and keeping your distance (if you play Foe's it helps boost your aggro meter) or tanking them. A WHM may also be a good option, but healing can be quite spotty during these events.

SMN is a pretty cruddy class to do for Odin/Behemoth due to the DoT limit. I find myself playing BLM since the only DoT we have is Thunder and can output good raw damage just relying on Fire/Blizzard. BRD has to rely on 2 DoTs for a good portion of their damage and well..I don't think I'd want to be in melee range in that fight to do MNK or DRG. :P

He wasn't picking on your grammar but the fact Ramuh doesn't exist in the game. Yet. (2.3 pls come faster!) So yeah, pass me some of those shrooms too, please.

Thank you for asking this. As a new player myself, I did Behemoth for the first time this past weekend as a summoner, and I thought that my dots were being resisted because of my ilvl gear (currently ilvl81). So thanks to everyone for the clarification.
