Empathic Link works

[Valdaya]

<DIV>Following in the footsteps of Beguile, it seems like Empathic Link was stealth-fixed sometime over the weekend, as it finally started proccing for me tonight.  It ended up going off about a dozen times for me, with a clearly disctinctive lightning bolt visual for 120-150 damage per activation.  I was just soloing tonight, but from what I saw this spell should be a strong grouping tool now.  Put it on the tank and when he's being hit by many creatures, it should be proccing several times a fight, adding decent DPS and likely helping the tank taunt (as the spell's proc should count as the tank's attack for hate generation purposes).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Do any level 50 Coercers want to see if they fixed our much maligned broken level 50 spells?  If not, I'd expect it to happen soon, since it seems like they're quietly working through our spell list to make the needed fixes.</DIV>

It always worked. I tested it some months ago ( http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=27&message.id=182 ), and it worked there too.

<DIV> <DIV>It doesn't proc when the tank gets hit, it procs when the the person strikes the target.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>It says in the details that it gives the tank "your blessed weapon hits for."</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>At adept 1 it is a 5% chance, which is 1 in 20 chance.  It's not bad when you put it on a couple other melee classes.</DIV></DIV>

<DIV>That would explain why I had a green mob beat on me for 10 min and it didn't go off once :smileytongue:. Everyone thought it was a defensive proc.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>It's probably a defensive proc but why the hell does it say blessed weapon? You're not blessing any weapons.  [FAAR-NERFED!] sony and their vague spell descriptions.</DIV>

<DIV>Not only do I cast this on the MT, but also healer and any summoner pets.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have statalyzer running, and according to it, blessed weapon has proc 20 times on the healer i group with over the last couple days. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>It's also proc'ed 38 times on the MT I also group with frequently. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Avg damage is 109.4.</DIV>
