Bug With Poisons

edited June 2023 in Gameplay Bugs
Both poison refreshing powers, Bite and Infernal blast don't seem to refresh Noxious Poison from Defile/Corrosive Pit. Tooltip shows time being added but it still eventually runs out.

    To my knowledge, the Noxious Poison is actually successfully refreshed and can be seen ticking after "expiring" (much more easily seen if you copy-paste combat logs to a text file and Ctrl-F for it) but the timer of the DoT itself is not correctly refreshed by poison-refreshing effects, and visibly expires even though the effect is still active and refreshed. You can keep track of it by just assuming that if your poison stacks go, so does it, but it's still a bit of an un-fun mindscrew either way, and the DoT's icon/timer could use fixing for obvious reasons.

    Did further testing... That poison does seem to get refreshed on the main target, even if icon disappears, but area of effect damage aspect is NOT, so other targets do not get damaged once the icon disappears.

    This looks to be a purely visual bug with the icon, it is getting refreshed.​​

    Video evidence of it not being true. area of effect aspect of that poison is NOT refreshed.
