Couldn't wait. Tried it. It works. With and UN-Catalyzed proc, it stacks twice with just a split second of triple stacking--which I didn't expect on the non-superior version. I am well pleased.
Once I get a catalyst I'll let you know if it changes.
EDIT: Catalyzed works same way. Single stacks almost immediately, double stacks at 10 seconds (as long as it hits something), only brief split-seconds of triple stacking. So, I give up the triple stacking I hear people get from using a quick-recharging single target attack, but I get 13.4 more damage resistance pretty much automatically when I'm in melee without having to worry what attack I'm hitting with. I'LL TAKE IT!
Hokay. I've tried to figure this out, but not been able to get verification.
I have a FA/EM/PM tanker. I spam AOE's for aggro (and plus it just kills stuff), with only occasional use of single target attacks (like using bruising to soften up a hard target). So, I really don't want to slot the Might of the Tanker proc in a single target attack unless I just don't have a choice in order to get good performance out of the proc.
My first choice would be Blazing Aura because (bear with me), if the Superior (Catalyzed) proc goes off 6 times a minute, and it "procs" every ten seconds in a toggle, then this should be a very efficient set-and-forget way (and I LOVE set-and-forget) to get the bonuses any time there are enemies in melee range. AND, I checked and in the game in the Enhancement Management window, it looks like Blazing Aura wants to take the proc because when I click on the proc in my tray, it doesn't grey out Blazing Aura like it does the Pool attacks.
NOW, If that just isn't going to work because the devs don't intend for it to, then my second choice, which is much less set-and-forget, would be Whirling Hands, which has a 14 second base recharge that is down to under half that recharge time in my build. I spam it alot when I'm surrounded so it'd work ok, though I'll miss my set-and-forget Blazing Aura fantasy :P.
Please offer any info you can, because this has been really hard to research and I don't want to just "try it and see what happens" and have to burn precious unslotters.
Thanks!
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I figure (or, rather, hope and pray), that BEFORE I Catalyze it to Superior, it'll proc about every other 10 second pulse, giving me just a single +res, but AFTER I upgrade it, it'll proc every time, every 10 seconds, giving me two layers of +res pretty consistently (meaning I'll never get to triple stack it, but I'm willing to pay that price to just have auto-+res whenever in melee.
I duo'd at 4/8 last night and payed attention to my playstyle, and I always opened with a couple of rounds of all of my AOE's and then mopped up the bosses with single target attacks, meaning I don't use either continuously--the only thing I really spam is Blazing Aura. Man I hope I'm right and this damage aura thing works.
