Egg of Mortal Essence procs of Arcane Missiles

[Jynicks]

The Egg of Mortal Essence - Item - World of Warcraft

This item's description is," Your direct healing and heal over time spells have a chance to increase your haste rating by 505 for 10 secs."

However, after patch 3.0.8, i noticed that it procced off a damage spell. I did some testing at a target dummy and found that arcane missiles can cause the trinket to proc. This makes it a great trinket choice for arcane mages for the amount of badges needed to purchase it. I also heard that it procs off the warlock spell haunt. However, I could not confirm this because i don't have a warlock.

I'd think this is working as intended.

Arcane missiles = damage not healing, therefore not working as intended. Hi5 though.

Nice find maybe post a screeny though.

Awsome if it works, but i really don't see why it would...

Will try this when I get home, have plenty of emblems to spare so will post a screenshot if confirmed.

Edit: Confirmed, uploading pic.

Edit: Didn't have time to try any other spells but arcane missiles definitely works.

Don't see why a mage would pick up the egg in the first place, but nice

Confirmed it works for warlock's Haunt and Siphon Life too but that is intended since Haunt and Siphon Life heals, unlike Arcane Missiles which isn't heal the caster.

Maybe he just wanted the 98 spellpower off it lol.

No idea why it works off arcane missiles but this is probably going to get fixed soon I'm guessing.

Have tried more spells and only appears to be Arcane Missiles that procs it.

Probably is going to be fixed in 3.1, if not that will be quite interesting.

Shadowpriests can also get the procc if they use PW: shield with the glyph

The only exploit part of this thread is the sole fact that a POH (Proc On Healing) is triggered by Arcane Missiles. Any other ability/trigger mentioned in this thread is working as intended and is simply wise usage of game mechanics and should probably be taken to Elitist Jerks; What I mean by that in detail is:
In raid, Judgement Of Light can trigger that trinket, so can healing stream totem, so can Fel Armor's HoT regeneration, etc.
