Sonic Blast, Siren's Call, and the Interface Incarnate.

[SarelFox]

Taking any damaging incarnate dot while having the Siren's Call (AOE Sleep) power makes the power trigger the dot, waking all the guys up. This is exactly not why I took this power. Can that be made immune, please, to Interface dots? Or interface in general?

Siren's Call (AOE Sleep) power

Aside from the zone, what power set has the same name?  Incarnate? Have seen a reference to "clarion" which is a word used to describe sound.

 

Now if you are using any sleep power and an attack of any kind, it's kinda of a given.  Personally never liked it, trigger happy teammates are really counter counter productive.

Sirens song, I believe.  It's a big cone sleep in sonic blast.

Does the same problem exist for every sleep power with the DoTing reactive interfaces? That definitely sounds like an unfortunate behavior.

 

I wonder what mechanism it uses to determine what's an "attack" to determine when to apply the DoT... can TP Foe trigger the DoT? I tried doing a little digging but didn't figure out the mechanism 😵

Every sleep which does damage, which is most of them. It's definitely very unfortunate.

 

The interface procs are global procs which add their effects to most/all attacks that can slot damage enhancements.

After having looked at it, I think it might of been an error with the player's assumption to pick an auto proc with damage instead of a debuuff.  Sleep is Sleep, regardless and that is how it works.  Interface adds an auto proc to attacks (brawl included? I don't know much about incarnates, to much alt itis before 50) Your best bet is to either drop the Siren's song sticking with attacks (frees up for another power choice) or pick up the pure debuff aspect like Reactive Total Core Conversion with even more -damage resistance; you don't always have to "WTFPWNBBQ!" total damage the character except by choice.

I suspect Flashfreeze might be affected as well.
