The result of a spell is decided before it reaches the target, what generates a serie of related issues.

Exemple #1:

1. Have a mage cast Frostbolt at a Rogue or Night Elf;
2. Rogue cast Vanish or Night Elf cast Shadowmeld;
3. Frostbolt hits him anyway. Should Evade.

Exemple #2:

1. Have a shaman cast Lava Burst at a Priest;
2. Then cast Purge at the priest's Power Word: Shield;
3. The Lava Burst is absorbed anyway. Should hit at full power.

Exemple #3:

1. Have a Warlock cast Death Coil at a Paladin;
2. Paladin cast Divine Shield;
3. Paladin is affected by Death Coil anyway. Should be Immune.

Exemple #4:

1. Have a Hunter cast Deterrence or a Paladin cast Divine Shield;
2. Wait until its 0.2 sec to end then cast some missile spell at him like Ice Lance;
3. Hunter deflects it anyway. The effect is gone, he should be hit at this point.

Exemple #5:

1. Cast a missle spell at someone;
2. Activate your Spell Power trinket;
3. The spell isn't affected by the additional Spell Power.
