Procs work the same in pvp as pve it's actually one of the pluses they have going for them. Some are irresistable which is another plus. If you can fit 3 dmg procs and 3 HOs dmg/acc into attacks your attacks are gonna hurt.
Gaussion's. and it only has a 5% chance to fire. i usually put mine in tactics and it seems to go off pretty fairly.

I have mine in Tactics too. But I've played over an hour-time PvP and it never fired once during the matches....I play Arena matches if that matters. It works just fine when I'm back in Pocket D. But once I enter Arena mode it never fires off...Any ideas?
This was in i11 but back then Gausan's was thought to be buggy as it would proc in powers like tactics or FA but unlike a normal BU that lasted 10 sec, it would last maybe 2 sec at most. Sometimes it would proc during a 2+ sec animation and your next attack would have normal +dmg to it. Last time i checked it, it would go off 1-3 times every 100 sec because every 10 seconds it has a 10% chance of going off. might be different now, but if its still like how it was when i tested it, it's not really worth the 5th or 6th slot. Might as well move that slot to another power.
I'm not really worried about slots at the moment, I'm just experimenting with the build 
.
Also, I didn't only rely on my seeing it proc, I reviewed the entire combat log. No record of it going off during the fights. But when I"m back in Pocket D, it procs rather often actually.
mine goes off all the time in my dominaters tactics...i like it alot and i can see the dmg/tohit difference. also comes up with the purple hasten symbol in your buff bar.
Okay this is odd. I have 5 procs in my build and *none* of them is going off, at all....what am I doing wrong?

The GSFC is still buggy, as are all the BU procs, they will sometimes fire, but not play the symbol, and will sometimes play the symbol, its really lulzy that way.
Other procs you might not notice unless you're actively watching your combat log, what procs are you looking for, we can prolly help more with that info.
1) Which procs?
2) What are they slotted in?

1) Guassian's Synchronized Fire Control: Chance for Build up. Slotted in my Tactics toggle.
2) Decimation: Chance for Build up. Slotted in my Flares power (T1 from Fire Blast)
3) Devastation: Chance for Hold. Slotted in both Flares and Fire Blast.
4) Achellis' Heel: Chance for Resistance debuff: Slotted in Infrigidate and Sleet.
And just to say, I'm pretty sure they haven't fired off...been keeping track of my combat log. And all this is done in the Arena. No PvP zones yet.
All of those procs are working properly, AFAIK.

Well, I'm weirded out then. lol. I don't know what to say about it, except that it's actually been happening.
The message for it shows in the healing received channel. I have seen all those fire off recently.
Duel me.
I will work on my sig pic more when I have time.
Just thought I'd add that I have a GSFC chance for build up slotted in a build up power and it is not working properly in pvp zones. I do see the proc go off in the combat tab under healing received, however there is no dmg bonus granted when viewing combat attributes. Same is true for the Decimation build up proc. It does appear to be working fine outside of pvp zones as it displays an additional 100% bonus to dmg when it fires.
Has anybody else noticed this? Are these IOs intended to work in pvp zones?
Again, I'm not saying that the procs dont go off in pvp (because they do), I'm just pointing out that the combat attributes do not reflecta dmg increase.
I see my gaus fire all the time in rv. If you are exed down that may be your problem.

As others said you really do have to pay attention to your Combat logs to see if they go off, since there are no visible cues that they go off|

1) Sounds nice paper, my problem with this proc, its pretty much random on a toggle( for example it will go off while your standing there, and really isn't reliable for PvP)
2) Spam this power enough eventually it will go off
3) the problem here is that slotted hold powers only last for a few sec in PvP, I can't imagine these procs actually hold longer for 1 sec in pvp, not my first choice for PvP procs, best use would be de-activating offensive toggles on who you are fighting
4) this is a nice proc, the miliage i've seen out of it, is when slotted in attacks with -def, and in mutlipe attacks
For PvP the best procs are damage procs( as mentioned their unresistable). Also shop for damage procs for your secondary effects, many secondary effects have at least one damage proc available
"3) the problem here is that slotted hold powers only last for a few sec in PvP, I can't imagine these procs actually hold longer for 1 sec in pvp, not my first choice for PvP procs, best use would be de-activating offensive toggles on who you are fighting"
Actually that proc has a base 6 second hold on players. That's longer than a controller or dominator ST hold. Heck, the only way for them to get a longer hold is to enhance their ST hold for duration.
Also, only a good number of damage procs are unresistable damage. Mostly the non purple ones, and the Unbreakable constraint one.

Again, I'm not arguing that the gaus proc is going off. I see it go off in my combat log all of the time too. I'm saying that my damage does not increase when it goes off while viewing the combat attributes. Are you checking that your dmg is actually increasing in combat attributes, or just trusting the combat log when it says, "your attack power is temporarily increased"? And my proc is level 26 so I don't think exemping is the issue here (Sirens pvp)
It will, it has never fire when exed down. Regardless the io level the level of the power available or the level you are exed to. Even exing from 50 to 49 will stop it from working.

S'why you should be slotting it in Aim/BU.
