Can we please fix the ongoing DoTs issue, please

It's not your issue to begin with. I'm not in your party.

No, but I definitely feel sorry for anyone who gets stuck with you. Your attitude is just rotten.

Why do you play an MMO if you're not willing to cooperate with others? It makes no sense...

It'd be like me overwriting someone else's protect because I want MY protect up. That's just silly and a waste of time.

You realize you get the advantage regardless of being in the same party or not on ALL debuffs, right? There's no party-specific Slashing Resistance Down. The enemy just starts taking more damage from Slashing sources regardless of their user.

That said, your Dancing Edge example does make me wish there were certain priorities or criterias we could adjust for what or whose debuffs other than our own we want shown. Otherwise we end up with a bunch of NINs each wasting 60 potency per rotation. Honestly, if I were coming from the 'only by debuffs visible' point of view, that might even be more important to me than the issue of my DoTs not showing. I've been dealing with the latter long enough to count to 18 in my head each time... Sucks, but it works.

We're hearing your thoughts!

Holy rays of light and such. Thanks for the heads up.

There is only one suitable response in the world for you.

Oh man haha. I know this conversation was over a week ago but my goodness this was an amazing read.

"Warriors can make me do more damage by applying my debuff for me so I can do better things? HOW DARE THEY I'll just keep putting it on anyway, who cares if my damage is crap from all these pointless re-applications they shouldn't be trying to help me in a team game!"

I'm not gonna lie I've hearkened back to it a couple times now and giggled along with rolling my eyes.

Whenever ninja's insist on overwriting my WAR's slashing debuff over and over again, I switch to storms path instead.

I don't because then I'd just lose dps for a stubborn ninja :/

Greetings, everyone!

I'd like to take a moment to respond to this concern, and let you know we're hearing your thoughts!

The problem is in raid-wide content, where everyone is placing their DoTs and debuffs on the enemies/boss that sometimes your DoTs/debuffs dont show up, and you are left wondering, when to refresh or if the DoT/debuff even showed up at all. This is a big issue for Summoners, Scholars, and Bards who rely on DoTs for a big part of their damage. And to add insult to injury, with skills like Sidewinder and Fester, sometimes they don't register if the DoT markers aren't there.

Thank you for your continued feedback regarding the target display limit in 24-man instances. Our Lead UI Artist Hiroshi Minagawa recently acknowledged this concern in the Letter from the Producer LIVE Part XXVIII, sharing the following:

Minagawa: We’ll look into this. We didn't know what kinds of actions would be added in the future so we squeezed in as much information that can be displayed during a battle as possible. Now that we have a better understanding of how much space we have, we believe we can increase the amount of information displayed, so please give us a little more time for this.

This thread can be found here for reference! Please continue to share your thoughts and feedback and we'll continue to pass the information along.
