Curse on Hit problem

Hi

Having a problem getting this curse on hit setup working. If I remove the cast when damage taken i can fire ball lightning manually and it applies the curses. When CwDT is slotted the ball lightning fires but the curses don't apply. Maybe something stupid I missed but flummoxed. Any ideas?



Thanks!

Hi. I Think the problem is the lvl of the curses. Try to lvl up them past cwdt req so they do not get triger by the cwdt.

Ball lighting must have lvl 40 or lower but the cast on hit and the curses can be max lvl

your curses are too low level, which results in them being supported but two different trigger gems. In this case, both triggers are disabled

Ah I see, subtle little gotcha. Thank you both very much!

You can also level Curse on Hit. It's a support gem, the level restrictions from CWDT do not apply, only your Ball Lightning is affected.

Yeah, was planning to level curse on hit and the curses to max, just never twigged that while the curses were below CwDT's level it would bork it up, but it makes total sense now.

Eh... no, what you're implying doesn't work. You can have a level 20 Curse on Hit and level 1 Cast when Damage Taken and still fail to ever Curse anything. Each Support gem independently checks its logic against the active Skill gem, and if both say "can work," then neither work. Level 20 Curse on Hit and level 1 Cast when Damage Taken plus level 1 Warlord's Mark and Projectile Weakness will result in no Curses.

Jeez, it's obvious that the two curses must be above the CWDT level restriction in order to work with CoH. But that is beside the point... CoH is a support gem and is thus in no way affected by CWDT level restrictions which only apply to skill gems (read the gem description if you don't believe me). All that needs triggering in this setup is Ball Lightning, so CWDT lvl 1 + Ball Lightning lvl 4 + CoH lvl 20 + WM lvl 20 + PW lvl 20 will work as intended.

I dunno man, seems like a language barrier to me.

"You can also X" in this context in standard English pretty much means "You can also pursue X as a means of achieving your goals instead of Y."

In normal, everyday English, you would want "however" instead of "also."

In addition to leveling the curses (which has been explained before), he can also level CoH as a means to increase the curse duration.

Does this penetrate your language barrier sufficiently? ;)
