Carrion Creepers and Procs..

Hey all,
I've been considering slotting this power recently and have a general query...
Has anyone tried damage procs in there and how well do they fire?

I've noticed that it can take 3 damage procs which could put out a lot of damage.

Here is how I am considering slotting the power:
Posi's Blast: Chance of Damage(Energy), Enfeebled Operation: Accuracy/Recharge, IO: Recharge, Trap of the Hunter: Acc/Recharge, Impeded Swiftness: Chance of Damage(Smashing), Trap of the Hunter: Chance of Damage(Lethal)

This would give 53% Accuracy and 92% recharge with a small bonus to immob as a set bonus.
Anyone tried this?

Sounds class. But I'd do the following personally to milk the set buffs
:
Posi's Blast: Chance of Damage(Energy), Trap of the Hunter: Acc/Recharge, Impeded Swiftness: Chance of Damage(Smashing), Trap of the Hunter: Chance of Damage(Lethal)

I would then get 2 IOs from those sets - a Posi Blast acc/dmg and dmg/rech (or any 2 of Trap of Hunter)

That way theres decent recharge, acc and even greater dmg then ^^

The procs will "fire" once a foe enters the aoe and every 10 secs after.

I've done something similar with flares on my mind/fire with a chance for buildup, chance for end drain and eventually a chance for hold with just an acc IO. Made flares essential now

Did consider trying to put a bit of damage buff in there but I wasn't sure it was worth it considering how little the power does. So I just tried to put as much accuracy and recharge in as pos.

Every 10 seconds isn't so bad.. is that just on the 'immob' area or do the vines fire procs as well when they attack?

Thats all "chance for" procs. Yeah the dmg is meagre tbh - maybe have 1 of the recharges from Trap of Hunter and Posi Blast to get some buffs and get the recharge ya want.

I dont think the "vines" it leaves affect the procs at all - the procs are tied to the aoe of the creepers iniitally so each proc will fire once every 10 secs on every target.

Personally I can't live without slow in creepers.

Word of warning. Positrons Blast - Chance for energy damage, does not do anything in Carrion creepers. I've ran several tests, and have had it slotted for the last couple of months, it has never proc-ed.

I can't speak for any of the other procs, but this one does not work with creepers.

Have you petitioned it Paj? I had an issue where my Time and Space Manipulation +stealth wasn't firing in Wormhole. 2 Bug Reports later - it started working ^^ I'd say it should be petitioned and then it can be checked and made to work

I have /bugged it. It's not been fixed yet (haven't tried it on test for I11 yet).

It appears that Postrons Blast isn't working in any of the pseudo-pet attacks. People have reported it not working in Oil Slick Arrow aswell.
