I vote to have the misinformation this Milkshake86 guy is arguing stricken from the record on grounds that he doesn't play shadow and is only assuming mechanics work this way from that blue post before Cata release where they said they wanted all DoTs/HoTs to update in real time.
VT and DP are the question here. Hell, even SWP if you don't mindflay.
I'm not arguing that SWP stats are updated when you use mindflay. They are. I am saying that they are not updated every single tick for any dot. Being refreshed or recasted is different to this. Please, learn to read.

Definitely... unless Milkshakes can provide some proof that his interpretation is correct. Also, as an aside that blues post referred to here clearly says that they want dots/hots to update in real time meaning when they were recast/refreshed, Link in a min...
Was easier to just quote from a previous thread on this subject

It would be nice in that it would require less effort from us to take advantage of procs....
Lower the gap? Yes. By lowering the top "better players" DPS. Not great really, especially as it's a slightly more complex way of increasing your DPS than making the decision to use Mind blast on cooldown, rather than wait for orbs.
Oh it would be a terrible change, I guess I wasn't clear in my post.
I never want Spriest to be like Ret Pally was back in Wrath, where I could literally do the same DPS on some fight mashing keys to hit whatever was off CD as I was doing when timing procs and prioritizing attacks.
