Scroll of Insect Swarm description Pierce / Raw damage inconsistency

[peddroelm]

 

I've tested the ability 

 

Scroll - plague of insects

 

info card 43.3 pierce damage 10 seconds (BASE 10 per DOT tick)

Target had fine brigantine (12 pierce DR) . Caster had 10 might 10 int ..

 

+0 ms |Health Damage 0.000000 // apply scroll

+44 ms |Health Damage 7.000000

+3003 ms |Health Damage 7.000000 // 10 - 12 * 0.25

+3016 ms |Health Damage 7.000000

+3029 ms |Health Damage 7.000000

 

28 total damage inflicted over 9 seconds .. (this scroll seem to have a finish early problem as well)

13 * 5 + 12.55 = 77.55

 

The damage type inflicted in game is definitely pierce and each tick goes vs 0.25 of target's pierce DR .. So the description with RAW damage is lying ..
