With the launch of Episode: Revenant, there was a change made to ignitions that significantly nerfs their effectiveness when proc'd repeatedly. This nerf/bug makes ignitions done shortly after another ignition do 40% of the damage of the previous ignition. This reduction in damage stacks until the 5th consecutive ignition, which does 2.5% of the damage of the first ignition. The reduction seems to work on an internal cooldown, where the player who causes the ignitions is put on a hidden timer. If they cause an ignition before this timer is fully waited out, they are affected by the damage reduction. I was curious if this is an intended change that went unmentioned in the patch notes, or if it's a bug.
The video showcases the nerf/bug on Titan using Consecration and on Warlock using Song of Flame.

This explains why I'm feeling my solar builds are so weak now. I thought was the lack of any synergy with the artifact.
