I'm surprised SAM is being used as an example when it has a very lenient DoT (only needs to be applied once per minute) and is fairly easy to apply at just 1 Sen. We also significantly increased our Midare usage this expansion and got a double Midare as a bonus on top. It's never been more big-number friendly.

DoT's add some depth. You get more value if you line them up with raid buffs but you can't reapply them too early or wait too long to reapply them. Then there's knowing how long a DoT has to tick to be worth applying, planning when intermissions will be or how long the target will live. Midare, you just hit the target in the face with it. Me do gud deeps now.
