[PLEASE MOVE TO BUG REPORTS] Death Rush doesn't always proc?

I use two totems with Ancestral Bond, and I notice that sometimes the onslaught procs and sometimes it doesn't. More often it doesn't.

I do have minions, but I watch them carefully to make sure it is my totem getting the kill and not them, and I still often don't get the proc.

Is this a bug, or am I missing something?

Very old bug. On-kill effects are never supposed to grant you bonuses when your totems kill, because totems are not you, but there is a technical issue surrounding damage over time that prevents proper assigning of kills.

Way the game works right now:
You receive on-kill effects if an enemy dies from Damage over Time caused by your Totems
Else: You do not gain on-kill effects when your Totem kills an enemy

On kill mechanics don't trigger if yourself do not get the kill. Totems are not you.

If it sometimes proc, it would be because the mobs are dying to DoT damage applied by your totems. This is the only exception for which you are credited the kill.

Understood, thanks. If a mod could move this over to the bugs forum, I am grateful.
