[[Damage over time]] ('''DoT''') is a term which means dealing [[sustained damage]] not at once but averaged over a given time period. Most damage over time skills deal damage over discrete time increments, however others deal damage only when a specific triggering condition is met. The term is also used to refer collectively to both true damage over time effects and [[health degeneration]] effects, which are similar, but technically a form of non-damage [[health loss]].
