Prismatic spell damage

Prism

Explorer
For the various prismatic spells do you apply your static damage (from items/feats etc) for each hit that does damage or do you work out how many hits you get and then just apply static damage once at the end. Since you only roll to hit once this isn't a multi attack power but is a multi damage power

The character builder provides no insight - it doesn't display damage calculations for these spells

Each of the three effects are seperate smacks of damage, and seperate damage rolls. So, just as if you'd hit with multiple attacks from Twin Strike, you apply applicable damage bonuses to each roll seperately.

BONUS:

Let's say you have something like Hellfire Blood. Hellfire Blood is concerned with the -keyword- of the power involved, and nothing else. So you'd get +1 to hit with it (obviously) and the damage bonus it gives applies to both the Fire damage portion, and the Poison damage portion.

BONUS 2:

If you hit someone with immunity to poison with this, poison immunity specifically states they'll take no poison damage, nor will they be effected by the non-damaging parts (which in this case would be the dazed effect from hitting their Will). It might not seem like that part is poison, but immunity doesn't care. It's a poison power, that's a non-damaging effect, so they are immune.
