Shard of hate wiz bug

[FrankyBlue]

So I just found a shard of hate on my wiz and I was messing around with different lighting skills and noticed that lighting hydra triggers the weapon proc every time. Not sure how useful this is but I would say it is a bug for sure and thought I would share.

Not a bug, different skills have different rates on proccing effects, some are set to 100%, some are very low, for example, Whirlwind on a Barb has a 13% chance, whilst Bash has a 100% chance, Runes also affect this.

D3MaxStats has the proc rates.

What bash are we talkin about here ? cause i'm not seeing any lightning rune on barb bash

SoH procs off of every skill (not just lightning).

dat wrong info in this thread...

SoH only works with Lightning, Cold and Poison spells.

It follows the Proc coefficient rule. If proc coeff = 1 , it will proc every time, if 0,667 , 2 out of 3 times https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...E&toomany=true

SoH effect works on USE, unlike most other spells/procs which work on HIT. TO verify, just use a spell in town without hitting anything, you will see the SoH procs.

For hydra, it's indeed a bug because the proc coeff is 0.

I know it procs 100% off Mighty Throw rune on Weapon Throw skill for Barb (been posted in barb forums literally days after the SoH nerf/fix). Makes it a good alternative to Frenzy for a SoH barb since it does lightning damage too, and at range.

the proc rate got nerfed i thought everything was below 100% total because it was broken did they not change that ? or am i wrong.. thanks ahead of time.

This right here^

and it procs off mighty throw 100% because its proc coef is 100%

And yes, you are wrong, they made it scale off proc coefficients, they didnt change it's proc chance so to speak. It has an internal CD of your attack rate (so it shouldn't proc faster if you have hydras, blizzard and are casting stuff sorta thing). Most abilities it wont proc off all the time any more.
