The problem being that they have already so weakened the Disease DoT as to make them useless. Lvl 9 Tainted Breath does a total of 50 damage over 30 seconds for 40 mana, pretty good. The Level 19 Affliction DoT (disease based) costs 75 mana and does 54 damage over 48 seconds?!? This was supposedly done to make them more viable for party use. HAH!

Just try 'kiting' with you wonderful lvl 19 dots. I haven't and won't kite, but these have been so weakened I won't even buy them. I have heard that at 24th lvl we shaman get good DoTs again, until then I will just watch my roomies 6th level Bard kite Orc Cents with ease...
