Oddities in Assassin Dragon Talon kick

[Ignatz]

Here is the Babelized version of the site. Always good for a laugh, that babel. It does a pretty good job in this case (barring the "Calculator of Tub . Thank-beautifully at NOC a that patiently of me step themselves read").

Anyway, I've been running a kicker around for about a week now. The damage your calculator comes up with does gel with my character screen, whatever that is worth. The TS damage surprises me, though, since the AB reported in a couple places that it did not add to the fire splash damage now. Now I'm hearing conflicting things.

Anybody know for sure what, exactly, Dtail carries over to the splash damage? My experience so far seems to indicate that damage from Claws of Thunder and Phoenix Strike may even be included in the splash, above and beyond what the skill itself is doing. I'm having a hard time figuring that out for sure, but the damage output of Dtail increases significantly on the character screen (in to the 10's of thousands range) and, (in a rare agreement with reality?) monsters with low resistances to lightning and fire damage often get obliterated outright with a fully charged CoT + DTail.

However, this seems to happen inconsistantly, which either indicates that I'm a poor judge of what's going on, or that something else wafts that sweet, sweet brine o' fish.
