    Some questions about Hollow-point in its current iteration.

    I think, by now, it is common knowledge that when Flint proc hollow-point shells, that is a second instance of damage. So first one being his auto-attack damage and a second attack dealing 20-50 physical damage. Due to these 2 instances of damage I have the following follow-up questions:

    (1) I know Flint is able to two-shot a sight or revelation ward through his hollow-point shell mechanic, but what about when enchanted with Revenant's Defile? Will he instantly deal 260 damage and 40% slow. Same question for Prophet's Persecution: Will hollow-point make the target take 100 magic damage instead of 50 per attack?

    (2) Can Flint Beastwood crit on the second instant of damage? I know that the +50 damage is not amplified if he crits on the first instance of the second ability.

    (3) Similarly, does proc'cing mini-stuns in anyway improve the chance of probability-based items like brutalizer, thunderclaw and charged hammer?

    (4) What about Ice Brand's slow stacking, does it get stacked twice with one hollow-point shot?

    1) Independent behaviour, so they both function as usual.

    2) No, only autoattack damage is affected by crit, Revenant Defile/Hollowpoint Shells are triggered instances of damage.

    3) No, independent behaviour

    4) No, it only applies for the autoattack.

    To clarify the above,

    -Revenant Defile, Prophet Persecution, Flint Hollowpoint Shells, Brutalizer, Riftshards, Savage Mace, Charged Hammer, and Icebrand all trigger an event on attack.
    -The event that is triggered will not trigger another event
    -All events can happen independently (and simultaneously) and do not interfere with each other

    To put it even more simply, Flint works the same as everyone else aside from when it comes to wards in reference to any procedure chance or 'effect on hit' items. The attacks act as one attack in almost every normal circumstance, and although it is coded as a separate damage instance, it will not change the way his autoattacks interact with items.

    Sorry Macro, it's just too good.
