"I came for the waters..."

As I understand it Fufill's does 2 things - DoT (degrades hp) and lowers MR.
I was misinformed about the drum ehancement working (an old song sheet said
it did and gave data points.) The part that degrades the hp would be the
part that might not stack or cancel another caster's spell - like darkness
which is a 2 part spell - I do believe DoT and slows them.

I guess it is easy enough to find out what the effects are...

Ok, just tested: cast on self hp dropped from 786 to 765 and dropped MR from
51 to 41. No enhancement with a drum equipped. So thats 21 dmg on an even
con.

Bellow on blue mobs is hitting at a max of 18. Less on higher cons.

The MR seemed to recover on the second pulse. It was recovered before the
red color on the hp cleared and while hp was still degrading.

So, this tells me that it's use to lower MR would need to be synchronized
with someone else casting on it. I was thinking that it would degrade the
mob's MR and have a recovery period like hp. But it seems that the MR would
only maybe be degraded for the next pulse (tick?, round? ugh!) so the next
song after Fulfils would benefit from the MR degrade. Which says that you'd
want to weave it between each of the other target songs:

Fufil's - sticks
(mr degrades)
Bellow (less chance of resist) 18 dmg
(mr recovers)
Chant or other party buff
(DoT is complete) 21 dmg

FuFil's - sticks
(mr degrades)
Largos (less chance of resist)
(mr recovers)
Chant or other party buff
(DoT is complete) 21 dmg

Fufil's - sticks
(mr degrades)
Chains (less chance of resist)
Chant or other party buff
(DoT is complete) 21 dmg

I really doubt that ANY spell would be effected adversely by curtailing
chant as it is a MR debuff. The only time DoT's will not stack is when
DoT's of the same spell line are cast on the same target.
