Does anyone know if DoTs stack in Diablo 3? Say can I spam Rend and keep adding to the DotT counts? With 2-3 ticking at a time? Or does it overwrite the previous one when you cast them a second time like in WoW?
Damage over time effects do not stack in diablo 3. Every time you use the same dot on the same target you do only reset the timer to the maximum duration. This does prevent extreme damage numbers from long time dots. The dot effects are balanced to make good damage over a longer time allowing you different actions in the mean time. They have the best damage to cast time ratio.
