When does magicka det decided it's dmg?

leepalmer95 · January 2016

Remember reading this somewhere, if i cast invet or proxy on my resto bar will the dmg done be decided when it's cast or with what bar i have out when it goes off?

E.g. i have 9k invet on resto and 12k on dw.

Dang I wish I could post gifs from my phone. Somebody post that gif from "Scanners" on that thread title.

But I'm also bumping b/c the question is relevant to my interests.

I believe damage is decided based on which weapon is out after it connects, same with arrow barrage. If I were to use arrow barrage and switch off to my 2H I would get slightly more damage because my 2H maul does higher DPS.

I believe it's like curse which is a dot but with only one tick or some weird mechanic and like all dots etc and it goes off current gear set up. Likewise if you use entropy and drop a meteor only the initial damage receives the empowering not the dot ticks. Or succession gear on say a DK. If I cast my dots on fire phase they won't keep that high value when it changes phase, or on empowered wall of elements/liquid lightening/cinder storm. Only the first tick get the buff.

Of course I could be wrong but I asked something similiar back along and was how I interpreted the response I was given
