Marksman question

If I were to put marksman set on back bar with snipe, and barswap BEFORE snipe lands, would the marksman 8% buff to bow abilities transfer or not? Is that buff applied at cast or when the damage takes place?

    Generally, I think it will have the stats for the bar when it lands, so wouldn't get the Marksmen bonus. Maybe @DDuke has tested this though, he is big into bows.

      The moment the projectile lands is when % bonuses are counted, so you can snipe from off bar, weapon swap to bar with Marksman & get the Marksman bonus even if you didn't have it on snipe bar.

      Atleast that's how it works with Hawk Eye which I tested it with. I don't see why it'd be any different with Marksman as it is also a % increase bonus.
