Forum:Normalizing DoT Values

So as everyone probably knows, some Damage over Time spells list their total damage in the skill description. Other Damage over Time spells list their "per tick" damage.

The spells that list total damage after the full duration of the spell are generally phrased as "X Damage over Y Seconds". While spells that list damage per tick are phrased as "X Damage per Second for Y Seconds"

Examples
X Damage over Y Seconds
 * 500 Damage over 5 Seconds = 100 damage per tick

X Damage per Second for Y Seconds
 * 100 Damage per Second for 5 Seconds = 500 total damage
