I've noted ever since I was a wee level 1, that pyrogram seems to have a delay in damage, even though the velocity of the animation remains ~ constant, and the damage lag really depends on the amount of distance between yourself and your target. Thoughts? Equations? Archers?

    Some skills do have a delay like you mention.. d.pyro, glacial snare, and sandstorm are a few other examples. The only real practical application I've found for knowing which skills have the "projectile delay" is if you are trying to finish off an opponent whose charm is about to tick and you know what skills are likely to hit in time.

    I usually click spark/sutra/firecombo and even if they AD, the combo seems to release at least 3-4 fire spells, enough to kill them even with immunity buff on.

    which would mean your damage is 'counted' before animation hits target :D

    Idk I sorta was thinking Absolute Domain must have been nerfed or something, cause I have used it numerous times only to fall down dead instantly after I hit it (not several seconds). Have considered taking it off my genie as it seems worthless.

    Most immunities have a delay of 1-2 seconds, seeing as I have to expel a second before i actually need it in GV. b:surrender
