(2020) "Curse enemies with Flammability on hit" question: Does the +25% ignite chance apply to the initial hit, or only the follow-up hit?

I'd like to avoid getting 125% ignite chance if I can, and I can't find any conclusive answer on how this mechanic works.

You have to hit them first to apply the curse - it's then too late to modify that hit, since it already happened, and they weren't cursed when you hit them.
