    Shadow Flare and similar DoT AOEs not affected bosses or sub bosses.

    Tried reporting this to Square Enix in-game... But I guess they didn't know what to say.

    Basically, When I'm in an instance, the main boss and their corresponding sub-bosses don't have the "dot" marker when I cast DOT AoEs on it. I've tried it on the bosses in Qarn, Aurum Vale (Ninja DoT AoE) , and Shiva EX. It works on regular enemies, just not the bosses and sub-bosses.

    Server is Gilgamesh if that matters.

    Please fix this! Shadow Flare is a huge part of my DPS!

    Shadowflare doesn't give a DoT marker on enemies. The only marker shadowflare gives on an enemy, is a slow, which most bosses are immune to.

    Shadow Flare and Flaming Arrow never had any DoT marker on enemies. The ability marker is in your buffs bar, and damages normally the enemies in it

    Whata bout the Ninja AOE, then? Bosses must be immune to heavy too.............. Hm. :/

    They really should have DoT markers for SF, Flame Arrow, and Doton.. *sigh*
