If you’re hitting a target at range 1200 with spatial surge, and you have another target that is in the beam but only range 300 away – what damage does the target at range 300 get?

Does the spatial surge beam have a chance to crit on each target it passes through? I’m using sigil of fire, and I’m wondering if the flame burst will only happen at the targeted mob or every mob the beam passes through is a chance to proc the effect?

From my experience, each hit has it’s own crit chance roll, so in your line AOE some might crit some might not.

In terms of damage at different ranges on multiple people, your AOE will do as much damage to each person based on their distance, so a 300 range person would be hit with minimum damage, and 1200 range would hit max damage on the same surge.

I think the crit proc flame burst actually will roll on each person you attack, so it can proc on any of the people you hit. (Just tested this to confirm)

Thx for the tests. Most of the time when I use this, I’m busy trying not to die while I’m trying to hurt three or four characters at a supply camp at the same time.

So I’m not very good at looking at the numbers while this is going on.
