Only the first hit. I have one on my Shiradi Wiz and you only see the Light Damage on the first hit.

Naturally, the words "on harmful spellcast" mean that the effect happens once when you cast a spell, whether it is Polar Ray, Fireball, or Magic Missile. Why, imagine if something like Shiradi Stay Frosty could trigger more than once per SLA... that would drastically overpower the DPS of the real caster EDs.

The Lantern Ring's Radiant Glory effect has an incorrect tooltip. The description should read, "On Harmful Spellcast: Do an additional 2 to 12 Light damage. This effect scales with Light Spell Power. Cooldown: 1 second." The upgraded version should read, "On Harmful Spellcast: Do an additional 3 to 18 Light damage. This effect scales with Light Spell Power. Cooldown: 1 second."

That might be the better answer. It's from the Known Issues thread.

Yes this is a necro.

Does this proc with the FvS Archon? I have one from my past life as a MM spammer and would love to use this with a future FvS build.

Not that bad a necro really And yes it does, but still with that 1sec cooldown so if you're casting too then naturally occasionally it won't still be proccing, though if you're just thwacking away happily then it'll boost pretty much every archon pewpew.

As an extra note, it doesn't seem to be boosted by light spellpower specifically, but rather by the spellpower of the "carrier" spell - i've seen it hit far harder off a fully meta'ed magic missile on my shiradi (about 360 force spellpower before metas) than i have on that same character's unmeta'ed searing light (about 280 light spellpower before metas).
