Protein Breakdown

Hanging around our base today when I get the message "Nanoprogram executed successfully..." Didn't take notice at first. Then, close to a minute later "Protein Breakdown will terminate in 10 sec." and "Nanoprogram Protein Breakdown terminated..."

The reason I bring this up today, a guild member had the same DoT running on him yesterday. Every few seconds I saw a little 4 floating above his head. Didn't bother to ask him about it 'til today.

I know doctors can't cast DoTs while in sneak mode, so I know that can't be the case.

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed such?

Bugged towers?

Arks/GMs playing tricks?

Does this look familiar?

Thank you, Miir. Never noticed that before. My guild member uses a O.E.T. Co. Jess which would I see has similar effects.

However, have not equipped the weapon myself, yet still recieved the text messages. Still doesn't explain that.

Have I had DoTs appear on me without really knowing why? Well, yes. But I always just figured I had a case of fumble fingers working my hotkeys and had accidently DoTted myself :/

Wow....I have been getting this all the time, and usually I only see it in the backyard....and now I know why, that is where I snag a Jess out of the bank and put it on for whatever reason....

Thanks Miir

Funny that it was originally supposed to put the DOT on the mob you were shooting.

Perhaps the gun itself is bugged and is DoTing the user and surround team members.
