Earthcaller vs Swarmcaller

[Toxigen]

Non raiding players will get a lot more bang for their buck MQing Swiftwind, buying a Swiftblade of Zek for your mainhand, and keeping a Swarmcaller in inventory for those rare situations (or solo).

Plus, you can move the SBoZ to a future alt or sell it. Dumping 200k for a Shattered Emerald of Corruption should only be done by those with plenty of cash and an extreme desire to "complete" their ranger.

Swarmcaller is a great tool to have and it costs < 1% of Earthcaller for when you really need the slow.

[Azure Ogre]

The DPS comparison here is way off, no way a swarmcaller comes close to dual epics in almost all scenarios except maybe killing very low green mobs. Earthcaller from my experience has a very high proc chance, I’ve soloed from 50-52 so far with it and I don’t think there’s been one time it didn’t proc during a fight, usually happening multiple times.

Proc modifiers were removed from all wpns on p99, any sense that one is proccing more consistently then the other is just misunderstanding rng

interesting!!! actually we can’t prove OT hammer can proc in a row
just for reference is there a patch note or something like that we can read more about this

I want to say it was around the time they nerfed invis pulling but I'd have to wait till I'm back home to dig for it. It affected a lot of shit tier weapons like barb spiritist hammer etc iirc

Ty sir, that's the nerf I was referencing. All wpns on 99 have the same proc rate/chance per minute

Is that true for all weapon have the same proc rate?
let me try it out to find some prove[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
from GamPrase i have some logs of Sledge of Smashing with 98dex,
1) total melee time 8493s with 179procs, average seconds between procs=47.4
2) total melee time 3204s with 67procs, average seconds between procs=47.8
seems procs rate of a weapon is quite stable

i'll try to get some log of swarmcaller and Kreizenn's Flame with 140dex to compare
it may take some time...

What mob are you using for logging parses? The super noob turtle in velious? Where is it found?
