It's normal those 2 golds to respec the renown?

Yes on live was like that too
You pay for respec both, imo pretty stupid design ( cuz renown spec test will take a lot of golds or real paper) but maybe dev team.is still looking for gold sink stuff and so one is equal.to another one prob.

The game has a lack of gold sinks, respeccing was one of the few big ones if you had a guild to provide pots. Even with maxed guild tax there was never really a shortage of gold on live. Especially not when you could farm ToVL.

I know i know in fact understand why it was put.

Borliss pointed on low ID AOE tick dmg I have made some test and I can confirm, that initial target gets only 50% portion of ID tick dmg, while AOE part of tick hits everyone else for 100%.

There was the intention to nerf id to the ground single target wise, so I guess it's happening.

To be ever more specific, my stated intention was to make the Slayer 2h spec more effective ST than the AoE spec, and the inverse with respect to AoE. Changing Rampage doesn't accomplish that.

Question regarding ID damage scaling
When i did some testing back in the day it appeared as if ID was getting contribution from weapon dps to its DoT ticks for every tick separately, resulting in a huge overall weapon dps contribution to the ability.

My math is a bit inaccurate due to rounding, but it appears ID was getting ~200% weapon dps on its every tick(on top of regular 150% weapon dps on original hit), resulting in a whopping 950% total weapon dps over full duration

For comparison Cleft in Twain(middle tree DoT) gains only about ~215% weapon dps

General
DoT ticks no longer trigger the auto attack.

Dot ticks trigger the auto attack again

edit: thanks for the quick fix
