Elizabeth Ashlee Posted September 8 Posted September 8 (edited) Blaster, Fire Manipilation - Cauterizing Aura and Theft of Essence: Chance for +Endurance. Theft of Essence: Chance for +Endurance is not doing anything under any circumstances when slotted into Cauterizing Aura. It appears to never trigger regardless of enemy saturation or duration spent with the power inflicting damage to enemies. As of October 2nd 2025 this is no longer "broken", the +endurance is triggering when hitting enemies. Edited October 2 by Elizabeth Ashlee This has changed.

Based on the info, it should be going off 3.5 times per minute based on the info for the power that it is in. It doesn't seem like it would need to score a hit for the proc to have a chance of going off. I'm assuming you have been watching the combat attributes for end recovery and haven't seen it pinging? I'm also assuming that you only have the one proc in the power. 1 1 If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore. (It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications) Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case. But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable. Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.
Uun Posted September 30 Posted September 30 Does the heal require a target or does it tick with no foes in range? If the latter, then the power may be coded incorrectly and shouldn't accept Accurate Healing sets. Uuniverse

Theft of Essence is an Accurate Healing set, so its effects will only apply to Accurate Healing powers. Cauterizing Aura is not an Accurate Healing power. The fact it's slottable at all is probably a bug. Edited September 30 by Wavicle 1 Wavicle's Guide To What Really Matters: What Needs To Be Done On Every Toon

For several months, perhaps closer to a year this slotting choice has not worked. I had assumed it would be changed or fixed to not accept accurate healing enhancements at some point in time but without that happening I decided to mention it here. Mostly I find it curious that if this was not intended it would have been changed at some point, and its odd that so many folks consider this the Meta choice yet I guess literally none of them have actually looked to see if it were working. It also oddly seems to require hitting an enemy for either Numina's or Miracle procs to trigger, even though they should be active at all times in a toggle that is on, or always on while in an inherent power like Health.

Yeah, it sounds like the power is implemented poorly. 1 Wavicle's Guide To What Really Matters: What Needs To Be Done On Every Toon
Nayeh Posted October 2 Posted October 2 We can go ahead and close this thread. OP does not know what the heck they are talking about and clearly couldn't take a moment to examine their combat logs. This Toggle, like any other damage-toggle, requires a to-hit check for Procs to fire.

This Toggle, like any other damage-toggle, requires a to-hit check for Procs to fire. No need to be nasty about it. And yes for several months I have observed the combat logs and had others observe the same issue when they tested. This may have been changed as recent as today. I'll be testing it again in a moment.
Elizabeth Ashlee Posted October 2 Author Posted October 2 Yep, it does work now, but I can 100% assure you this was NOT working 48 hours ago and has not been working for many months leading up to now. Maybe revisit when they remove the Halloween activities or drop another patch and we can see if it is still working. A quick search on discord and you'll find others discussing the same issue. 2
