A speedy response on a Thursday, when most of the players are at work, or in school. Good luck with that. I hope there is someone online who has that knowledge that can help you.

Which proc are you specifically asking about. I don't recall any "Chance to Hit" proc. Do you mean a Chance for Build Up, like Soulbound Allegiance: Chance for Build Up or something else?

Here's a couple previous questions that might help:
Soulbound Allegiance build-up in Phantom Army
Soulbound Allegiance proc question.

If you mean a proc that has a chance to go of when an attack hits, like the Achilles heel, or many damage procs that is one thing. If you mean a proc that gives a chance to hit, like soulbound allegiance, that is different.

In the case of soulbound allegiance, it will check to trigger on you (not the pets) each time you summon them. It will also check to trigger on the pets each time they attack. It was bugged in the past, but is not bugged now.

In the case of all damage procs, they will check to hit when the pet attacks WITH A POWER THAT ACCEPTS THE SET THE PROC COMES FROM. This is infinitely important. Mercenary Spec Ops can slot the Achilles Heel proc, but very few of their attacks can benefit from it. I think one, with a second if fully upgraded. Similarly if you slot the chance for negative damage, they only have the exact same attacks that can accept it. So it is generally a waste. Both work good in the bottom tier mercenary.

Which specific proc were you thinking of and which pet?

I'm not sure which IO can be slotted in a pet to give a recharge chance, but whatever it is would be a waste. It would affect you when you summoned them - not worth it because it happens infrequently. It would affect them when they used a specific power (maybe a knockdown, since that's the only chance for recharge I can think of), but since pets are immune to anything that affects recharge, it wouldn't do anything even if it did fire off.

Which specific IO are you talking about?

It will check when you summon, and if it procs then it will affect you.

It will subsequently check for the pet any time they use a power that does Knockback/Knockdown/Knockup and will grant the +Recharge boost to them. However, all pet powers now ignore +Rech, so while they'll get the buff, it will do nothing for them.

Well, which is it, a +ToHit Proc, or a +Recharge proc? Gotta help us help you here.

Only if it procs on summoning the pet. The proc can fire from the pet using its powers, but in that case the buff is applied to the pet itself, and all pet powers have been changed to ignoring +Rech, so it will have no effect.
