Channelling spells fundamentally cannot be triggered by any means.

We use all the development time we have. If we provided it a few weeks in advance it would change pretty drastically by the time it was live and wouldn't be much benefit for planning.

As always, both apply before any modifiers to damage taken.

You're referring to "increased/reduced damage taken", not for example "25% of Elemental Damage taken as Chaos Damage" on Incandescent Heart, right? My understanding from how Armour's worked previously is that something like Incandescent Heart with this chest should convert 25% of the Elemental Damage before Armour is applied.

Yes. "Modifiers to damage taken" means modifiers to the damage taken value, after it has been calculated (via resists/armour). Modifiers to which type of damage you take happen before any mitigation because otherwise there would be no point.

Excuse me, but I am not sure if I am understanding this correctly. Would that mean the 70% Elemental Resistance applies first and the reduction from Armour is applied afterwards? Meaning it adds the 70% first and then the % from Armour as total (let's say 10%), e.g. 80%? Also meaning the order of operations is different from what I assumed but end result is the same (original size hit is used for Armour's damage reduction calculation).

Or are you saying that Armour's damage reduction is calculated after Resistances are applied, e.g. if you have 70% Resistances you only need to account for the remaining 30% for the Armour damage reduction calculation?

How does the 90% Ele cap fit into this?

Yes.

No. That would be applying them at the same time.

This is correct.

Is there any change to ascendancy class this league?

My understanding is that there are likely to be some small changes that correspond to skill revamps we're doing but they're minor and not full Ascendancy reworks.

/u/Bex_GGG can you give us an estimated date for the "Zana-mods in Harvest" announcement?

That usually comes out with patch notes or slightly before so 3-5 days before launch most likely.
