Damage over time (DoT) effects deal damage every server tick, or 3 seconds, independent of the effect's duration. This means that the effect may deal damage anywhere between 0 and 3 seconds after it is applied, and in 3 second intervals afterwards.
==Use==
Inferno is Ifrit-Egi's Enkindle action, dealing heavy area of effect (AoE) and additional damage over time. As Inferno's AoE is a cone rather than a circle, it has only a quarter the AoE of Garuda-Egi's and Titan-Egi's , and thus has a harder time hitting as many enemies, and its potency isn't quite as high as Earthen Fury. Despite these drawbacks, Inferno is the best Enkindle to use in single-target encounters where its small AoE isn't a concern, as its total potency is greater than Aerial Blast while Earthen Fury requires the low-damage Titan-Egi to stay on the field for its duration, and Ifrit-Egi has greater single-target DPS in general.
