Do Conductive Aura and Energy Manipulator: Chance to Stun play nice together?

It works but my testing in beta had it fire perhaps 2 times in 5 minutes standing there draining three -9 mobs.

I've been running this on line, and simply put, theres better things for that slot in your power to be doing.

10% proc rate on a stun that seems to only mag on minions. Sure its been fun once or twice when a few enemies have jumped in on me and ones been stunned so I had a few seconds of not dealing with him, but its never saved my bacon, and its never gonna stun the whole group.

It also doesn't seem to be affected by Domination. Either the proc rate or the mag will have to go up on this for it to be truely useful, as the tick rate of the portion of Conductive Aura that checks it to proc is pretty fast, so it's lack of usability isnt there.

I've been running this in the power since I got it thanks to a bit of marketeering luck, so 16 levels with it running, and its fired in general, very little.

Playing a Dom durring beta, i skipped the chance for disorient in CA (CA was not a end drain, it was a stun at first, so i slotted for stun). That was why i never tested that proc in that power. But as the power set evolved, CA changed to a pbaoe end/regen. I planned on using the proc to stack with the CA as a pbaoe stun.

Just because it was beta, i slotted chance to stun in most of the powers, just to see how they would add up, and i agree, you can spend your slots better (if you slots are good, then do put them in, by all means)

I had one in the aoe imob, chain kd power, and something else. With large groups, you would see one or two stun. If you got the slots to spend, then sure do it. But as it stands right now, u could prob use slot it for end (its end is better than the regen)

Any power you suggest to use Energy Manipulator: Chance to Stun in?

Had it dropped last night and I am thinking of putting it somewhere. If not on controller maybe on electric/electric scrapper.

Similar question: if I slot a Performance Shifter proc in Conductive Aura, who is getting the bonus end, me or them?

I would prob slot that in Elec Fences, and Conductive Aura, and try to get it to fire more often.

It's one of those procs that in a single power, will prob not do a ton, but if you get enough of them, it should start making a pretty big difference.

I believe you'll get the end, but that proc works best in Stamina, as it's always on.

I can't find it, but I seem to recall someone posting that the proc in that power gives them not you endurance.

I'd be slotting one in Stamina too, for sure.

Well I guess I will have to test it before my respec rather than after
