Feedback from damage shields?

Dalayan Beginner
I just made a Froglok Wizard (because it sounded interesting), and have noticed that if a monster is killed by the damage from O'keil's Radiation (Wizard 4 damage shield/fire resist)- I take damage as well (*Pain and Suffering have hit you for x damage*).
I was just wondering if this was normal effect for the SoD world.

P.S. The duration enhancement is a great improvement over the original. :)
 
I don't believe this has anything to do with the damage shield. I believe this is due to some kind of timing issue. The mob actually hit you again before it died, but by the time the message got around to being displayed, the mob was already dead so it's displayed as "Pain and Suffering" since a dead mob can't hit you, and there's no other mob associated with the final hit.

But yes, it's normal.
 
i've noticed something similar with procs.. if my pet procs right as the mob dies he'll hit himself with the damage, it even shows up as "wiggles hit wiggles"
 
I was under the assumption that Pain and Suffering effect is from when a mob dies on the final hit to your damage shield. It has been the only time i have seen the effect.

I always just figured it was a flaw somewhere in the agro codeing, but i can see how the Gu's idea could work out.
