FS#22346 - Fire Mage - Travel Time

Currently, Fireball, Pyroblast, and Frostfire Bolt work like any other spell. They do damage when they impact the target visually.

Fireball, Pyroblast and Frostfire Bolt should have a hacky mechanic whereby after .75 seconds of air travel time, they deal their damage to the target, even if the spell visual is still traveling through the air. This is beneficial for Fire in ensuring smooth play if you are the maximum distance from the boss, ensuring that your crits and Heating Up procs are not delayed. This is not just for Fire mages as Frost mages casting Brain Freeze FFB should also see this effect.

“There are some times where we do some tricky things under the hood to make things feel better, and this is one of them. The intended gameplay is that you should be able to get a Heating Up proc while already casting another spell, and follow that one with an Inferno Blast to force a Hot Streak proc. You should never need to cancel your current cast to get that benefit.

So, tricky under-the-hood things follow. Again, you do not need to know or understand this to use Inferno Blast effectively, or play Fire; it should “just work.” But, for those interested in the gory details, here they are:
– Fireball, Pyroblast, and Frostfire Bolt (which was bugged until recently) have a cap on their effective travel time.
– Their effects will take place after a maximum of 0.75 sec.
– The fireball visual will still travel at the same speed, but you’ll see the damage number pop up and get the Heating Up proc after 0.75 sec, even though the fireball visual is still traveling through the air.
– We normally prefer the game to feel more visceral, by tightly syncing visuals to effects, but this change felt worth the gameplay benefit to us. In a future patch, we may be able to hasten the visual to match.”
