As I understand, Procs in an Aura powers are tough to fire. They only roll when the aura is interacted with by an enemy(I could be wrong about this), and then only every ten seconds of interaction.|

Another thing is the Chance for Build Up proc rarely ever fires at 5%. When I slot that proc, it is never for the proc effect itself. I only slot it to get the +2.5 positional def for the full set.
The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.

See it seems to proc quite alot for me in powers like targeting drone, tactics and focused accuracy. But so far I haven't notice it this time around in invincibility.

Procs in Invincibility only fire when there's an enemy in range of the aura. RttC has the same behavior, I believe.
I just tested it. It does work, once in a while. The 5% every 10 seconds seems about right. And it doesn't appear to check for every opponent in range. I was hoping that 10 opponents would make it go off 10 times as often, but no dice.
Goodbye and thanks for all the fish.

Yeah, it had been tested for that quite some time back - when it first came out if I remember correctly. It would be pretty bad-*** if it worked that way... which is probably why it doesn't.

As stated above it does work, but doesn't fire off routinely enough to make it worth it IMO. Procs in taunt auras are a good idea conceptually, but practically they don't work well.
I had the Gaussian proc as well as the Triumphant Insult and Perfect Zinger procs in Invincibility for a concept scrapper a long time ago, the results were less than ideal but I kept them slotted for nostalgic reasons.
Who do I have to *&^% around here to get more Targeted AoE recipes added?

Yeah it finally proc'd for me. I'm just gonna remove it and place it in targetting drone when I get my epic pools. Because it procs way more in the normal toggles

Can you confirm that the proc fired while there were no enemies in range of the aura? Not that I don't believe you, but I distinctly remembered that my Kismet in Invincibility refused to fire at all unless there was something in the aura. This could change my slotting slightly.

That doesn't seem to me to be what TopDoc is saying. It just doesn't go off more often with more enemies in range.

I only tested it with a lot of enemies surrounding me, just to see if I could get it to activate frequently. No dice, it went off twice in about 5 minutes. I did not test to see if it activated outside of combat.

Okay, I was misinterpreting your post. Sorry.
