Questions about Templar skll 'Backlash'/ 'Purifying Light'

First question: The damage storing 'effect' works for an entire group's damage not just my own, correct?

Second: I'm not toally clear how the damage is calculated. Does it mean that say 10, 000 damage is done in the alotted time that then a 1/3 (33%) of that 10, 000 is the applied damage (as long as it is under the max)?

finally, is it actually "storing" the damage or is that just mean its registering the damage to calculate the burst?

thanks.

    Yes it works for the entire groups damage. The damage it does is capped, which depends on your level and the damage is also mitigated.

    I'm not sure what you mean by 'storing damage' or 'registering the damage to calculate'.

    It just registers the damage done, it does not make the person or AI immune to damage until the cap is reached.

    thanks for replies. i think i got it.
    --to be clear though: If the target takes say 30, 000 damage in the alotted time then the skill does approx. 10, 000 (if under cap) correct?

    thx

    Technically, in the situation you described, the mob would take 30,000 damage from all sources, then the purifying light would add another 10,000 damage when it fires.

    What the numbers are all depend as described above. However this is a skill that you put on your boss bar.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
