Does MF work with DoT?

I remember reading that IIQ and IIR did not work with damage over time attacks, like burning and viper strike. Has this been fixed?

i dont think they admitted it was 'broken', as in it was purposefully designed to not work on DoT skills
cannot recall where i read that sorry

edit: actually heres an old thread where it's stated they were thinking of possibly implementing the effect for DoT

http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/14698

but thats quite old (last december) and i'm pretty sure i've read something else mid-this year where they said it wont work on degen effects.

good to know that there is a difference.

so there are three magic find probabilities for DoT chars:
o from gear
o from gems
o from "random" for opening chests and flasks

IIQ and IIR on gear have always worked with kills from DoT.

IIQ and IIR support gems apply on hit, and thus can't affect kills from DoT. Our position on this has not changed - we'd still like to find a way to let them apply. I have a plan which theoretically might work to test at some point, but this is far from a high-priority issue.

Thanks for the clarification Mark. That's good news that it works with gear.

My only problem with this stance is that I am not able to run my Poison Arrow build as my main damage ability because of the loss of IIQ/IIR.... kind of annoying as I love poison arrow.

^ was exactly my situation before.
sorry OP i thought you meant the support gems rather than just gear based IIR/IIQ

Now that the IIQ and IIR skill gems are a HUGE boost to Magic Find (since those stats were removed from many items) I feel this is an even bigger issue than before since loot hunting IS arpgs endgame.

But I'll roll with the punches, I know the game mechanics fairly well.
