Freedom of Movement annointment not working.

I have freedom of movement annointed to my Karui Ward for my twink gear. Since equipping the amulet at level 5 I have not recieved the phasing buff one time.

I believe something is not working at intended. When looking at the passive tree it shows that freedom of movement is allocated but states that " Requirements are not met"

Has something changed or could this be a bug ?

After unequipping and then re equipping the amulet it now says "unallocated" when hovered in the passive tree.

Awesome good to know ! first trap build lol. Thank you for responding

FYI - the reason for this is because traps are separate entities which use your skills. They are not considered your character. So what happens is the Trap kills the enemy, and if it survives, tries to gain Phasing. I'm fairly certain Traps can't gain Phasing, so nothing happens.

This is also how Mines and Totems behave, although Totems may actually be able to gain Phasing since they usually live after using their skill once.

Also, note that there is a long-standing bug-turned-feature* that any Damage over Time kills bypass this ruleset and are always attributed to your character. So, on a future character, if you're using traps, totems, or mines that deal Damage over Time, you can in fact benefit from on-kill effects like this.

*It was never intended to have on-kill effects from DoTs bypass this system, but kill attribution is tricky with DoTs because DoTs are allowed to be on an enemy even when their source has disappeared. So if you try to attribute a kill from an enemy to its source, and the source no longer exists - what happens? Probably game crashes and/or lost EXP and lost loot. So as a workaround, any DoT kills are attributed to the player character. Been this way for around 8 years now and since there's no easy way to fix it, it'll probably be around for a long while yet.
