Wheel of Elements:Fire affected by Combat Advantage, mod15 ninja buff.

Yesterday an alliance mate of mine @trymelater noticed that WoE:Fire was doing oddly high damage and then noticed that according to ACT it is also flanking now.
Made me wondering whether it is a new behaviour and if it wasnt just some bug of that particular case, so i went on to preview and had some fun with target dummy.
The dummy was nice and all and so we came to a conclusion...

First picture shows old log where you can see that WoE doesnt get boosted by CA.

Second picture shows how it works past mod15.

1487 is the source hit, it is buffed by 41% CA (base+razorwood) to produce 2097 hit, pre mod15 WoE would then proc for 629,1 (bacause no CA) but in this mod the 629,1 proc then gets multiplied by 41% CA to 887.

This means that WoE:Fire was buffed and all DPS that gets it from their lovely support should rejoice even more

Yes, thats the point, check some old logs for WoE, even in parties and all fire procs will be without CA buff, flank will be 0, false.
