Do you think it's worthwhile to put the Forcefeedback proc for increased recharge in Ripper?

Depends on the secondary. On a spines/regen? Maybe. On just about anything else. Nope not really.

I wouldnt waste the slot on it. The only power I'd put it in is Footstomp, or anything else with a radius that big. Oh and only if its recharge is fairly low. It aint that great unless its a big, spammable AOE.

Heh, was thinking of Throw Spines, which can't take it. No, probably not worth it in Ripper.

I had that on Focus, Shocwave and ET prior to the fix...
Might still be ok on Shockwave or ET...
But I wouldn't put it on Ripper.

if you can afford it the purple chance for fire damage is great in ripper. really boosts single target damage for me

Why in Ripper over Spines Burst? Much more efficient.

Spine burst takes knockback sets?

I wouldn't put that enhancement in Ripper, I have it slotted in energy torrent.

Heh. It's dropped off nowadays, but there was a time period when the forums were full of recommendations to put Force Feedback procs into all sorts of attacks: fire blasts, boxing, laser beam eyes, and so on. I concluded there must be something I didn't understand about the proc, which was *supposed* to be slottable only into powers that accept knockback sets. But now I think people were just jumping on the bandwagon talking about this popular IO.

The proc used to fire off 100% of the time with just the cooldown phase stoppin it from being perma if you spammed the power it was in and did not miss the target

How often does it fire now?

IIRC, it's a 10% chance for a 5 second 100% recharge bonus.

*EDIT*

As for the OP, don't waste a slot in Ripper for that proc. I just dropped it into Kick (had to take that or Boxing for Tough and Weave).

my spine/wp is killing mobs so fast already with BU+throw spines and spine burst (both with normal dmg procs) that I didnt need it in spine burst so i threw it into ripper and my lunge, impale and ripper all have purple dmg procs. it really did bump up my single target dmg
