[FIXED] [Druid][Feral][Spell] Rip

Bug description: Rip Formula changed a few times during the MOP, but at the moment the dmg output is lower even than the tooltip. On the average (tested with different gear and Combo Points) the RIP is ~37% lower than it says in the tooltip. Please note that the tooltip is also wrong since
The formula for the entire duration should be:

Code:

[(112 + ComboPoints*MasteryMultiplier*(320  + 0.0484 * AP))*8]*DamageMultiplier

Where MasteryMultiplier=(1+Mastery/100)
DamageMultiplier is any buff that does not give AP but increases all damage, like Tiger'sFury, Savage Roar, Feral part of Dream of Cenarius

The above formula is present all around the internet, from tooltips to weakauras but it is so for the patch 5.4.0. As you can see here the RIP got buffed but it isn't mentioned in any patch notes or hotfixes. All of the addons that predict tick damage for bleeds and the GODLIKE tool named Catus (for feral), seem to calculate the damage of each tick accordingly to this formula:

Code:

(113 + ComboPoints() * (384 + 0.05808 * UnitAttackPower('player'))) * BleedMultiplier() * Target.damageMultiplier()

This has the 20% increase included into the calculations, as you can obviously see.
^note that Target.damageMultiplier is refering to any debuff on the target that is increasing the physical damage it takes.

After fixing this: https://forum.wow-freakz.com/FIXED-Druid-Rip-t344632.html I noticed that if you apply a RIP then you get an AP/Mastery buff and than you use one of the abilities that extend RIP by 2 seconds than RIP isn't just extended by 2 seconds but it acts like a new RIP, increasing the DoT tick value, even though it should only add a new tick to the old RIP, not snapshotting again. Same goes if you apply a RIP with a buff that's about to fall off and than you use a Mangle (for example) than the RIP tick gets lowered, which it shouldn't.
It seems that this extension with re-snapshotting has it's mechanic inherited from Ferocious Bite. The Ferocious Bite is meant to do a snapshot when it refreshes the duration of the RIP. (currently is not working: https://forum.wow-freakz.com/Druid-Feral-Spell-Ferocious-Bite-t348148.html)



Vengeance is in my heart, death in my hand,
Blood and revenge are hammering in my head.

Formula fixed, damage should be ok now. Regarding this:
