[0.3] How totem weapon work in 0.3

From patch note:"Shockwave Totem, Ancestral Warrior Totem, Artillery Ballista and Siege Ballista now use your equipped weapon(s). They no longer have their own flat damage, base critical hit chance, or base attack time."

Since they use player weapon for stat now, how do they interact with weapon switching?

Like if player w/xbow place down an artillery ballista then switch to unarmed, does it stop firing since it has no ranged weapon, or that they are instanced as player place them thus unaffected by weapon switching?
