Mystic Burst: Difference between revisions

Line 28:

* Heroes with [[Spirit Lifesteal]] will heal from [[Mystic Burst]]'s passive effect triggering.

* A small lightning shock visual is applied to the enemy hero when it is hit by [[Mystic Burst]]'s passive effect.

* ~~In order to trigger the additional~~ damage, the ~~triggering spirit damage must exceed the threshold ''after'' damage reduction calculations, including spirit armor and damage reductions~~ (~~e.g~~. ~~from Inhibitor~~).

* Now triggers on your base damage, rather than how much the target receives. (as of 11-07-2024-update.44786)

* Interaction with spirit shields: The triggering of the additional damage is entirely unaffected by the target's spirit shields (or lack thereof)~~. The spirit resistance of the target is always taken into account when calculating whether the damage is above the triggering threshold~~.

* Interaction with spirit shields: The triggering of the additional damage is entirely unaffected by the target's spirit shields (or lack thereof).

* The additional damage, and the ability which triggered the additional damage, are applied to the target as separate instances of damage. The additional damage from [[Mystic Burst]] is dealt after the original spell damage. This has implications for abilities or effects that rely on single instances of damage, for example:

** Vindicta uses assassinate on an enemy Warden. The baseline Assassinate on its own is not enough damage to kill the Warden, but the increased damage (due to the additional damage from triggering [[Mystic Burst]]) is enough to secure the kill. Since the additional damage from triggering [[Mystic Burst]] is applied after the Assassinate, it is technically the item's damage which secures the kill, not the Assassinate. Thus, Vindicta will not receive bonus souls from Assassinate's passive.
