Achilles Heel proc
Quote:
Quake and Freezing Rain IMO.
I was looking in MIDS last night and realized that there are 3 possible slots where I might place the chance for resist debuff IO in my Earth/Storm controller. Those would be Freezing Rain, Earthquake, and Tornado. I have a few interlocking questions regarding this.
1. Just because I CAN place them does that mean I SHOULD place them in all 3 powers? 2. If not, what powers would be the best to place it in? Thank you guys! Sirken |
In all cases the Proc will check every 10 seconds against everyone within the AOE of the effect. In Quakes case that's a 25 foot radius, and in FRs case that's a 20 foot radius, both from where you placed them. In Tornado's case it's a 7 foot radius from the things center, and it has a habit of knocking people away from itself.
On an AV, sure - keep in mind, however, that the debuff from AH does not stack at all, so having multiple AH procs only increases your chance of debuffing a target, it won't increase the amount. If you have the spare slots and spare IO's sitting around go ahead and stick it in tornado as well. However, against a single hard target like an AV you probably also want to cap damage on tornado, as it does a ton of damage if it can focus on one target. If you have AH procs in freezing rain and earthquake I would make sure to put damage in tornado first.

Ahh thats very good to know. I didnt realize there was no stacking. I think that the 2 in FR and Earthquake should be sufficient then.
I was talking to a friend and he says he read something about the Touch of lady grey proc having a higher than normal chance for firing. Is that true or just a perceived thing?

The Touch of Lady Gray Chance for Negative Damage proc has the same 20% chance as most other damage procs.

I thought so. Thanks Local Man.
In fact all 5 damage procs that can go in Freezing Rain have the same 20% chance to fire.
