Screenshot above is a log from a fight against a reaver.
The spell has 6sec frequency/8sec reuse time, and i know reavers can benefit from instantly cancelling and recasting the spell.
But as you can see in the screenshot, Reaver PBAE DD pulse hit me twice a tick.

To explain more detailed, above tick was actually his second tick, and at that tick he hit me with 32(-14)*2=64 dmg in total
And after 2 seconds(So this was after 8 sec after his first tick), he cancelled and recast the spell,
and from that tick, he hit me with 31(-13)*=62 dmg in total

I don't think that pbae dd chant are suppose to hit twice every tick.

He could have canceled his higher level chant, and reused it, and did it with the lower level one at the same time?

Not a bug I think. He probably used PBAOE Chant, let it run for a while, then when it ticks again, he cancels and recasts it immediately. This way he can cast it twice. Effectively he loses some rupt potential though.

I may be wrong though. Since I can't do that every tick - only every second tick. Or there would be a 2 second gab between casts.

Nope, that's not the result of twisting. It's just DD itself is doubled everytime.

This was just repeating the message, the damage was only applied once.
