Reactive Interface stacking?

Hi everyone,

Interface debuffs are capped at a max of four per type at any time on one target. I get that (and thanks again to Dispari for compiling all the Incarnate data in that guide). But there's always that edge-case that I manage to overthink and convince myself is "different." Here I go again.

The fire DOT from Reactive, does the same type of cap apply to this, keeping no more than 4 different "tickers" of DOT going at any one time?

Thanks for your time.

Later on,

i think the DoT is slightly different from the other interface debuffs as it might allow up to 6 DoT applications

im not 100% positive on the above, but its definitely either 4 if not 6

Okay, so there is definitely a cap that the Reactive DOTs hit. Armed with that information, some of my guys will start out in some of the other Interface abilities, because I'm sure that darned near everyone will be loading out Reactive.

Thanks.

Can always craft a two paths. Get that tier 3 Reactive for solo play where I am given to understand folks are reporting anywhere from 15-40 dps from the dots alone. Then make something else that is less widely used for team content

If your inclined to spend the time doing it that is.

That is precisely the plan. But the 2nd Interface ability will likely not come until after I've got the rest of what I'm doing done in the other slots, and on some of my chars, Reactive will be the second ability, just so I'm not another guy bringing hot dogs to the picnic, but no rolls.
