The casting of the fire variant only has a combat event because it it adds an effect to you on cast. The lightning one does not. This is to say it's pretty random what gets through. There is a rule in place right now that only sends the ACTION_RESULT_BEGIN if the cast time is greater than 0 with the assumption that some other event would arrive immediately explaining the results of the ability. In the case of ground AoEs like this, that isn't true though. We could send down BEGIN in the case of instant AoEs or even in all cases for all abilities, but that would mean for event traffic. What are you trying to achieve with this?
