The last time I checked the reduced damage ticks are still present; they're just not being displayed properly. With the last few updates, I've never seen a reduced damage tick pop up next to the affected enemy: I've seen the values show up near the edge of the screen, near Saryn, or offscreen entirely. You'll have to watch the enemy's health bar to verify.

The extra tick you're describing accounts for the initital damage tick at t = 0. Prior to U11, I always thought it was odd that with no power duration mods there were only 4 damage ticks, and not a 5th damage tick at t = 4 seconds. It was as if the power was ending a second too early. With Continuity, there would have been 6 damage ticks and a reduced tick at t = 5.2. Now that Miasma has 5 ticks with base duration, there appears to be consistency.

Here are some observations and feedback I've left on Saryn's thread in the forums. I feel the same way as Azure Ryu: increased power duration should not penalize Miasma.
