Fortunata Hypnosis: Chance for Placate

I was just wondering if anyone has used a Fortunata Hypnosis: Chance for Placate proc on a elec melee on either Charged Brawl, Havoc Punch or Jacobs Ladder? Is it worth it? I was planning of getting rid of placate so I can pick up Weave for more defense and and needed to get rid of a power. If I use the Placate proc on one of those attacks and slot the ATO (w/ Chance to Hide) set in Thunder Strike, will I be okay? My stalker is a Elec/WP/Mu PvE build and just needed some advice. Thank you for your help.

I've never tried the proc but from what I've heard, it's pretty much useless unless it's in aoe sleep. The idea is that if the slept target gets waken up, the placate effect will get rid of the aggro for 8s. I am not even sure what happens when you solo. Don't waste it in your Elec powers.

Edit: Oh, Stalker doesn't get critical with that kind of placate if that's what you were thinking. I wish!


What's left is to normalize all Assassin Strikes and improve Stalker's old sets (Claw, MA and EM)! You don't need to bring back the missing PbAoE attack. You just need to make the existing ones better! For example, make Slice a WIDER and LONGER cone.

ive also heard the proc may be broken too but its incredibly hard to test as the proc itself sucks as Jibikao says

Cool, thanks for the info... I will just use the ATO proc even tho it is about to get changed. Just trying to figure out how to get more defense and need to drop a power. I might just drop Super Speed and just keep SJ and use ninja run in the missions if needed.

I don't think that it's working on my Elec Dom : /

The aoe sleep patch is a pet... so when placate happens, the mobs can't see the patch but they can't attack the patch to begin with. :P
