I think I found a solution to damage over time

How about some additional chest armor perks that help you withstand these effects. They could go something like: Burn resistance- reduces the duration of burn Poison resistance- reduces the duration of poison Flash resistance- reduces the duration of blindness (I added the flash resistance because I think it would be a nice choice to have as well.) I think these ideas would be a great solution because it helps out the people who dislike damage over time (or blindness), while also making them think more strategically about the armor they wear. The best part is that Thorn, Firebolt grenades, and anything else that burns or poisons remain untouched.

    I agree. I'd rather them add counters than make the Burning perks total garbage.

      Speaking on behalf of Grenades, I have the best solution to Damage over time. Just have all Grenades insta kill people within the effective blast radius. Yup, every single grenade. Pulse Vortex Scatter Bolts Walls Lightning Trapmines All of em. Then no one can say "Bwahh, it takes you out of the game for like 14 seconds before your health recharges" No more waiting 14 seconds, cause you'll be dead. Press respawn and go again. Only then will I believe that Sunsingers are the most OP class in the game. Sunsingers with maxed Discipline and HoPF... Solar bolts... Insta kill frenzy. Won't even need Touch of Flame and Viking funeral. Take those perks out. Gift of the sun for two nades?! Now that is OP as hell.

    • I think this would be a bad idea, the chest armours we get with increased armour while using a certain subclass is bad enough, I now have to have 3 sets of every chest piece just so I can use all 3 subclasses effectively. Then I have to account for extra ammo for weapons on top of that. In my opinion a fix to DoT could be to only allow it to take your Shields and stop to leave you with at least your health.

    • Aim in, it'll make you shoot closer to the center of your screen. Good defense when your rushed from the right or from around a corner.

    • Or you could play the game as it is. See these items have been here for a year and a half. People have lived with much worse in the crucible than all the stuff everyone is crying over now. It is to the point where there is so little left functional people are crying over NOTHING. It is as though everyone in the crucible daily tries to come up with something to make another nerf post for.

      • The only solution is to remove burn completely. It's cheap and unbalanced.

            • Reduced Solar burn armor is extremely helpful against fire bolt burn, the other ones needed are way too situational to really be necessary.
