1. According to what you found out, the Ignite seems to "snapshot" any +% damage modifiers on the target at the time of application. However, I thought Blizzard had changed this a while back to make the DoT's recheck against any damage increases each time they were refreshed?
2. If #1 is true, wouldn't that mean that you could continue to roll the same Ignite that you started in the burn phase and have it always have the +50% damage on it? (Although would be highly unlikely since you would lose the crit buff after burnout so you would need insane RNG.)
3. So does this mean that Combustion triple-dips into that 50% damage increase? Your Pyroblast hits 50% harder which gives you a powerful ignite, which also hits another 50% harder, and finally the Combustion takes that buffed Ignite as it's base value and then that hits 50% harder.
