Why is almost all damage and healing done in this game Over Time?
Comments
Because they wanted to piss you off.
I guess it's working.
Groovy.
Not sure what you mean, perhaps it are certain classes ...
However, Wich Hunter and Bright Wizard have plenty of direct damage.
The Warrior Priest indeed has a heal with a hot added on it, I like it, reminds me of the WoW Druid.

NO, If there was Direct Damage spells noobs would not be able to react fast enough. Thats mostly what will be RVR'ing in this game.
It's easymode/handicap mechanics!
Damage is always going to be over time. . .sorry not one shots here. Healing is done over time to keep balance. If healers were able to mash a direct heal for 1/4 of the players health they would be tremendously overpowered.

You wouldn't understand
Warrior Priests suck if you get a Well Played Marauder on it.
Nobody said anything about 1 shots...
This game is built for the slow and handicap RVR'r.
Uh actually most of the stuff is direct.

Then why do you need to come up with all of this random trolling? If it's so bad then no one will play it.
Proof?
80% of all damage in this game is from Damage over-time abilities,spells.

And marauders suck if you get a well played Warrior Priest on it. I don't know what you mean by this comment.
Anyways, Witchunters do have a lot of direct damage... in fact their accusations and judgements are really pretty powerful. The first one you get is a large direct damage amount that can take down someone to at least a 2 or 3 shot depending on which squishy you're aiming at depending on how much health(their level) and armor they have

Do you have proof? All classes have a dot, you have your figures turned around. Its about 80% direct damage and 20% dots. I will tell you the same as I tell everyone else that complains. . .if you don't like it don't play it simple as that.

I don't see what the problem is? If you know how to play you'll work with the skills you have and use them correctly. Personally I like DoT better especially on my archmage because I can set it and forget it while I heal.
Battles are supposed to be just that.... battles, 1 shotting people isn't fun. If you like being 1 shotted so much go to a PQ and play with heros and champions of higher levels.

You are wrong. You better go do more research.

Your post explains my point about easymode mechanics for noob PVP'rs
What is with you folks and your 1 shot complexity? I did not play WoW and did not gank grays in DAoC. If you are bringing your CSS PUB experiences against the AWP in here ?

If you tell me which class has 80% DoTs I will personally go and do the research for you.
I play a black orc and he does pretty direct damage.
So does the Maruader from what I can tell. And the Chosen.
Groovy.

Prove the 80% you just gave us. Since you KNOW that it is 80%, please, post your calculations, which should consist of the name and description of every spell/ability in game, counted up, then the HoT/DoT spells, added up, then the HoT/DoT spells divided by the total. I find it interesting that it comes out to an even 80%.
Did you know that 56.9534% of all stats are made up!?
NO, If there was Direct Damage spells noobs would not be able to react fast enough. Thats mostly what will be RVR'ing in this game.

If you knew the answer why did you ask the original question.
It's how it is. Live with it or don't.

I'd be quite happy to look into this if the OP will tell me which class and to what level they have 80% DoTs. I'll even go so far as to do it twice, please give me a DPS class and a Healing class.
Shall we say up to level 16 to be fair seeing as you're only in the Open Beta? 20 perhaps? Up to you.

I know that 59% of orcs are republican.
I don't know what I mean by that.
Groovy.
