DOTs removed upon zoning

[darkeros]

I remember back in the day, there was a way to remove your dots by zoning. I can't remember if it was because you died while zoning or what, but does anyone else have a better memory than I, and remember the cause?

I also remember being able to heal yourself by zoning. For instance, if your hp gear made up more hp than you actually had at the time you zoned, it would give you the amount of hp that your gear makes up when you hit the other side, effectively healing you up to that amount. Anyone else remember that?

I think both of these were fixed, but wanted to check on them since I haven't played in a while. If they were fixed, does anyone know exactly how they fixed it? Some people may see where I'm going with this.

Yes it was fixed. It was in patch notes a couple years back.

Well, if you really wanted to you could get rid of all of your buffs and dots by going to plane of air...

I'm wondering how it was fixed. Anyone familiar with it?
