I sometimes open the AI to get more information on whatever I'm looking into, and if the page is open to just a Google search, it starts yapping about "Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die". Seems like there's something up with the AI if it always mistakes every google search for the movie instead of the actual topic. Has anybody else run into this?
It feels like all statuses are there just to take advantage of "% increased damage when affected by status X" gear and passives.
It doesn't feel like damage over time itself actually works after the mid point of Act 1. Sure it can be used to cheese a couple encounters at the start of the game, but it falls off hard after that.
Cold and wet work as statuses, but bleed, poison, and burn feel pretty insignificant in terms of their own damage or status. It feels like there is no DoT archetype based on stacking damage over time. Why isn't there a "Bleeding does 100%increased damage" or some such gear? Is there any in the NG+?
There are also a lot of enemies that are immune to whichever status or DoT, making it kind of redundant to spec in any. Raw damage wins every time.
Have people made actual DoT builds, or is it all %inc damage when X, and crit builds?
