Damage over time spells?

[ccaniman]

i am told that at higher levels, u will be able to combine 2 spell effects together and cast in one spell. Now Roots+dot spell imagine the fearsome possibilities.

Actually you get 3 double spells, a Double Missile spell blueprint (2 direct damage spells); a Drain Missile Spell ( 1 direct damage + 1 damage over time), and a Afflication Missile Spell ( 1 offensive affliction + 1 direct damage spell). So really you won't be able to combine a root and a dot (which would be nice ) just wanted to clarify that b4 you spend a lot of points on some skills thinking that you will be able to. At least nothing below 150 allows you to do this, so my guess is it won't let you. I'm thinking at 200 though it'll just increase the count of the spells ie 3 spell blueprints but still along the same line as this. Hopefully this helps.

Well then a dd with root or blind would work nice. Make the off afflict low level to keep costs down and just keep casting.
