    I thought this as well, was rather disappointing to find it didn't. Especially since with the AoE, you need to have both dots on the enemy for it to have the full effect. The time you take applying both dots on that one enemy could easily be time put into dotting another enemy to get multiple tics and wittle another enemies health down. I guess it's still a damage increase but it just 'feels' wrong.
