+damage to hostile spells

[TheSlashman]

<p>I was doing a test with my fable SOD item, which is a +75 damage to hostile spells.  I noticed on my DD's it affects it properly and gives me an additional +75 on the max damage for description of that spell, but on my dots it doesnt raise my max damage number by 75, its more like 25.  Is this a bug? or am I missing something on SOE logic?</p><p>Thanks</p>

Ifs its a too short cast with too many ticks, the normalization makes them go away completely. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> Though,t his is supposed to change in gu38, where they stop the whole normalizing int over ticks. you will get the full +75 on the first tick.
