Someone with access to the proc code would probably be able to explain it, but as far as I can tell it's just that your first attack always has a higher chance to proc than subsequent attacks. Re-equiping the item just makes it think its the first attack again.

There might be something to this...

For best results, /q out of EQ and reboot your PC between swings.

I usually proc right after I com plain about it not proccing

Forgetting to unequip it and engaging some rare spawn deep in a dungeon usually works 100% on first swing.

Can guarantee this works from way too much experience.

As a long time Swarmcaller victim, I can verify that un-equipping and re-equipping the weapon seems to work. However, I firmly believe that it's just confirmation bias and there is no actual effect. Consider: when do you most often get desperate and try to get things going by swapping the weapon in and out? When you have gone a long time without a proc, that's when, so naturally you are 'more likely' to get a proc soon after a swap.

Each random event is independent of what came before. Consider the coin toss.

Yes, I know. I'm talking about human perception, not math.

See that ^ part? The part where I said it has no actual effect?
