Default skill question (not sure where to put it)

Hey guys I have a question about 3 different skills, and I wasn't sure where to put this. I don't actually have any of the characters that use these skills, its just curiosity.

Poison mist, Flame Gear, and poison bomb. All 3 are 3rd job skills.

Do their poison/burning effects stack with each other. Meaning if a fire/poison mage, blaze wizard, and night walker, where in a party, and used all of those skills on the same spot would all 3 Dots take effect, or would one cancel the others out?

Just wondering. If anyone can test this and post screencaps it would be much appreciated.

interesting, although for the Night walker skill, i'd think it wouldn't stack, but would reset the poison level on the monster.

for flame gear, i'd imagine the element would be different since i've heard that it's been used on himes. so i'd think logically, they would stack, but then again, it's nexon.

Judging by how lazy nexon is, and from past observations of boss battles, my guess is that nexon was too lazy to program in a bypass if multiple DoTs are levied against one monster. I suspect that the way DoT damage is calculated when there's multiple sources is similar to the way normal attack damage is calculated when there's multiple sources. In boss battles, regular damage from multiple sources just stacks, so I suspect that DoT damage is calculated similarly (recurring attacks on a specific time interval) and will simply stack. The animations might get mixed up, but it's probable that the damage is stacking correctly.

But I'm just making observations and connections so take it how you will.

Sorry, I had a bishop and a ranger b4 I quit, and unless they added new attacks since I quit, my bishop and ranger don't do DoTs

While I've not tested this with my blaze wizard and another doter, from previous observations using a f/p with fire demon and mist, a monster can only be affected by one at a time. For instance, at himes, hitting a hime with fire demon removes all their elemental advantages (and makes them poisonable), so you can mist, but once they get poisoned, all effects of fire demon are erased (including the ability to be poisoned, etc.).

this has nothing to do with fire demon. some skills stack and others cancel eachother. I only want to know about poison mist (F/P), Flame Gears (BW), and Poison Bomb (NW). Also I don't understand why poison mist would cancel the effect of fire demon. that makes no sense, thats like saying if you get weakened, it cancels cursed. it doesn't the graphic just messes up.

Fire demon itself has a poisoning effect. Mist cancels out that effect.
You cant mist and then flamegear, then poisonbomb all on top of each other and expect them all to damage the monster. It won't work.

Because fire demon has nothing to do with these skills. I mean, it just has a dot effect exactly like the other skills. So sorry to have missed the ENTIRE point of your question and given false input. Please forgive me.
