A few notes:
Make no mistake, Pyroclasm is still an utterly worthless talent.
Here was my test. I gathered four mobs, sac'd my voidwalker and popped my mark of resolution. Then I cast hellfire. All four mobs died on the very last tick (which was perfect).
Four mobs, 15 ticks. 60 effective ticks. Statistically, Pyroclasm should have proc'd around 15 times.
ONCE. ONCE.
This leads me to believe that the 26% chance to stun is spread out over the entire channeling, making pyroclasm JUST as useless as it was before, if not MORE-so.
I'm not sure if it even works with Soul Fire. I cast 14 soul fire's and pyroclasm never proc'd. I would have kept going but I ran out of shards.
