Added info for blast finisher timing and a note on a possible bug. -KitenMitens 142.196.35.129 21:54, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
- I would think it's more likely that the initial blast is the bug. Normally any combo finisher will accompany the skill's actual effect. —Dr Ishmael 22:09, 10 December 2013 (UTC)
- The blast finisher notification appears at the start of cast time, but the finisher's effects only occur at the end of cast - and only if the skill was cast to completion. As far as I can tell it's just the Combo Heart Thingmie (TM) that's the problem. 81.155.226.208 22:18, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
- Seems like that is how all blast finishers with an activation time behave; The notification is displayed at any point during the activation time if a field is available, but will only apply the effects if the activation is completed. PurebladeProductions (talk) 11:52, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
- Not always, Churning Earth originally triggered a blast finisher at the start of the activation before they changed it to the end. I think it's consistent for all blast finishers now though.--Relyk ~ talk < 12:26, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
- Though the finisher takes its effect from a field that may expire before the skill is fully cast - so you can get an Area Healing half a second after your water field's expired. Odd, but useful - Arcane Wave and Arcane Blast are instant-finishers, so having the finisher part of this skill insta-cast-able can be linked to those, even if its effects are delayed. I like it. 217.42.87.248 07:48, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
