Tone down burning ground mod on waystone

Burning ground is waaaay over tuned right now.

There are more patches of burning ground than there are of normal ground in a lot of maps.

The patches themselves do far too much damage.

I suggest either reducing the amount of patches significantly or reducing the DoT values.

Yeah, burning ground is pretty rough. Dousing charm helps a little.

Narrow paths and most of the ground being burning ground is annoying to play through for sure.
Really?

I have the exact opposite experience. I was a little wary of trying a first burning ground on the T2 waystone I found, as I'm used to PoE1's burning ground and found the damage to be fully negligible, other than if I needed to recharge ES, I needed to be mindful to avoid it for a few seconds. But during general travel and most fights, I could ignore it almost entirely.

Where you running higher tier versions and the scaling is outta whack?

its far worse as you hit t15+

And for some builds it's far more terrible than you could imagine.

I agree. In caves or city maps you have more burning ground than you have normal ground. Also the damage is insane. With 79% fire res I`d expect to have more fire damage mitigation. The only way to play this game is go full dps+blink and forget about defenses or tactics.

I have around -79% fire res and go full dps, it doesn't work well with burning ground either :)

They need to cut down on the amount of damage fields in general.
