Multiple burning ground effects stacking their DPS

bug ref. 1,086,759,976

Went in with "exarch mobs drop burning ground on death". Well, let's just say I nearly killed myself.

Unlike regular burning ground effects that deal damage that can be mitigated, I was taking approx 4k damage per second walking through a dead pack. Actually, it had be more than that. 75% fire res, of course.

Why would they ever stack and overlap? This can't be right.
Sitting in HO spamming alts for 4 hours straight is peak PoE gameplay. Thanks, Chris.

yeah please fix asap, died so many times today after I switched my atlas tree to farm searing exarch.
I dont think they stack I think they are just doing that much damage.

I agree it should be toned down. Or outright eliminated. On death effects are lazy design to try and kill players in my humble opinion.

It honestly felt like they overlapped their damage. I managed to isolate one of the mobs and the burning ground it dropped was manageable.

I noticed this as well.

As an aside, use the one pantheon for burning ground in the meantime to avoid it if you can.

Unfortunately that's out of the question for me. I'll just have to avoid that altar mod.
