    I believe all (most?) ground effects tick their damage/debuff on the server global timer, which is the same as all DoTs, every 3 seconds. It's possible that the time you spend inside Barofield was during that gap between ticks.

    I thought about this as well, but it seems really unlikely because throughout our night on T11, i jumped in at least 50 times and never got hit with the heavy. Every 3 seconds and about .5s spent inside the field should result in a .5/3 = 17% chance to take a stack every time I jump. That can't be the case consider in just NEVER take a stack while jumping.

    I have used all 3 jumps on this fight literally thousands of times and never had an issue... although I could just be lucky :P

    I think that the AoE for Barofield is slightly smaller than the hit box of boss, so when you SSD or DFD and land right at the boss you are still not touching the field

    I see, that would make some sense, but it still felt and looked really odd to me while it was happening. Anywho, thanks for the info!
