Description

A few people on hib (bryt+ sard) gave feedback that 2 things seem wrong about dots.
And yea there seem to be 2 things totally wrong/broken atm.
For some reason dotdmg is locked at 175 /tick no matter what. Even if would land a 150/tick dot with additonal crit of 50 it would show 175 instead of 200.
Hitting any lowlevel mob/pet/testdummy will also lock at 175 dmg^^

Also dots on uth are never critting for more than 50% in rvr. That looks also wrong, dots should be able to crit for up to 100% additional value in pve and RVR.

Reproduction Steps

1. Log any class able to cast highvalue dots(ment,shamy,bd,caba etc.)
2. Get wild arcana 1-5 to enable critchance for dots
3. Check dotdamage, try to get above 175/tick.
4. Compare with live /old screenshot

Intended Behavior

Remove the 175-cap :D
Enable dots to crit for a maximum of 100% in rvr(and pve ofc)!

Best example here: 149+52 crit = 175? :D

[13:02:24] You hit Level 5 Doll for 149 damage!
[13:02:25] You begin casting a Fungal Blight spell!
[13:02:27] You cast a Fungal Blight spell!
[13:02:27] Your dot criticals for an additional 52 points!
[13:02:27] Level 5 Doll has been poisoned!
[13:02:27] You hit Level 5 Doll for 175 damage!
[13:02:31] Level 5 Doll has been poisoned!
[13:02:31] You hit Level 5 Doll for 175 damage!
[13:02:35] Level 5 Doll has been poisoned!
[13:02:35] You hit Level 5 Doll for 175 damage!
[13:02:39] Level 5 Doll has been poisoned!
[13:02:39] You hit Level 5 Doll for 175 damage!
[13:02:43] Level 5 Doll has been poisoned!
[13:02:43] You hit Level 5 Doll for 175 damage!
[13:02:47] Level 5 Doll has been poisoned!
[13:02:47] You hit Level 5 Doll for 175 damage!
[13:02:51] Level 5 Doll looks healthy again.

Evidence

Live today, dots still can crit for a max of 100%

Without crit the dot hits for 25/tick. Then it crits for an additional 19! However for some reason on live the display is always off and adds 3-4 dmg to every dot+crit. 25+19 shoulbe be 44 but its showing 48 here. Mostly it was 3 off, any dot i tested with menta vs minst.

Live today: Menta dotting for 241 dmg, no weird 175 cap.

Live 2003: Celt menta dotting a 51-52ish mob that got body-debuffed for -50%
