does a spell with SPELL_EFFECT_TRIGGER_MISSILE with Delay In Sec attribute trigger OnEffectHitTarget when the spell is cast or when the trigger missile hits the target?

but there are reasons why they decouple effects this way so that they can assure that certain events happen at precise times, for example, mages taking their modifiers when missile has already arrived at target rather than when the initial missile is launched

yes, spellmod snapshot can be one reason (also crit roll)

I'm wondering because spell 435640 does this, so I'm wondering whether Blizzard did this way so that they can safely remove already chosen targets to hit when Goldie shoots at them to ignite them

since there's travel time, it would be inconvenient (and wrong) to choose the same barrel again to shoot at

its like "hey, i was already chosen even though the triggered missile hasn't triggered (which happens when the visual missile from main spell reaches at me)"
