Reduced Proc Rates Aren't Classic

[Potus]

They procced soooooooo often.

I want to say that Gnoll Hide Lariats also had their proc rate reduced but Everlore's comments section is so so so bad.

Are you talking about pets proccing? That is a completely seperate issue. I believe there was a patch (on live and on p99) where the proc rate was reduced considerably on pets.

Both were reduced, Sword of Runes had its rate nerfed alongside pets not being able to proc them on non-summoned mobs.

------------------------------
- Random-effects on weapons carried by pets will now behave as if the
pet is a player character rather than an NPC. The change last patch
reduced them to a rate below player characters. As part of this patch,
target-specific random effects will only work if the target is the
intended type. For instance, a weapon that processes "Dismiss Summoned"
will only "go off" on a summoned NPC instead of everything.

Nice find! I tried searching but couldn't come up with it. Was that the japanese archive or allakhazams?

That's pretty known/been posted before. I think majority of the reduction you're seeing is because sword of runes has a 400% rate on live (probably because it was reduced to 19 damage) which was likely active here before the % reduction.

I have nothing interesting to add to this conversation.

But.

Bloodfrenzy is a weapon I still drool over.

The DD on Sword of Runes was reduced to 19 damage? When was this?

On live that weapon when it procced on everyone spammed way more than any other weapon in the game, hence the huge nerfbat it received.
