- Each wave takes 1 second to come down, so the first wave hits 1 second after channel start and the last wave 3 seconds after channel start.
- This means the last second of the channeling can be canceled without wasting any wave, since the last wave already spawns 2 seconds after channel start.
- The burn debuff does not stack per interval. Each interval refreshes its duration, resulting in 8 possible burn damage intervals.
- When the attack misses or is disjointed, it still applies Liquid Fire around and on the target.
- However, when the target turns spell immune or invulnerable before impact, Liquid Fire is not applied at all.
- Successive casts of Liquid Fire do not stack, but refresh the debuff instead.
- The attack first applies the debuff, then its own damage.
- Fully affects buildings, including the attack speed slow. Does not affect wards.
- Deals 1.5/3/4/5 damage in 0.5 second intervals (before reductions), starting 0.5 seconds after the debuff is applied, resulting in 12 damage instances.
- Can deal up to 96 damage to a single target (before reductions).
