if i cast dots while zerked everytime it repeats abd hits it makes the zerk hit noise, so does it actually do the increased dmg each time and what about after zerk ends>?

Poison, burn, and bleed dont increase damage with zerk on. Its unlikely other methods of dot would too. Zerk increases your "stats" so only damage done directly from you to the target would increase during zerk. Dot is usually precalculated damage based on the effect level, and the target's defence.

yep the warlock DOT skills do cause more dmg when you are zerked but not the status effects poison, bleed, and burn

the warlock's dot and the effects they cause are like 2 seperate attacks

holy word and immunity works on effects, not the attacks

just think of the warlock dot attack as having an imbue built into it :/ kind of lol

awesome thanks, but what about if i cast a dot while zerk is on but then zerk ends? does the dmg go back to normal? or still count as zerk? and what if i cast and then go zerk? thanks for all the help

any dots while you are in zerk gets zerk damage

it makes people really mad when you dot them run to town and turn on zerk :D
