Inquisitor: Heresy

[Eskol]

<p>Ok, so I've been following this spell for the past 4 days, closely monitoring each cast in hopes of seeing it work. However, it doesn't seem to work. Is this spell broken?</p><p><span style="color: #00ffff;"><strong><span>Heresy: A curse that inflicts the target encounter, causing anyone that casts a spell powerful divine damage and knocking them down, for up to 3 triggers per enemy.</span></strong></span></p><p><span style="color: #00ffff;"><strong><span>-On a spell cast this spell will cast Heretical Strike on target.</span><span>   -Inflicts ** divine damage on target</span><span>   -Applies Knockdown. Lasts for 2.5 second</span><span>   -Blurs vision of target   -Throws target back   -Stuns target   -Does not affect Epic targets-Grants a total of 3 triggers of the spell</span></strong></span>I've tried it on every enemy that I've encountered over the past few days, including every mob in SoH, PR, WoE, Venril Sathir, Ascent of the Awakened(X2), Halls of Seeing. Pools, ToFS, PoA, SoS, RE, RoV...Like I said, I've cast it on every mob and I watch it closely. It never procs. (I'm level 90 with it mastered, you'd think it might proc on lower level mobs if nothing else)What's the deal is this spell broken or am I doing something wrong? It would be nice to have it available as another heal when need be (punishments line), or just for added damage.</p>

<p>Heresy doesn't work reliably because npc's don't seem to be credited with casting a spell even when they do cast a spell.  I think the developers realized this was an issue, but instead of changing the mechanics to make it work, or the spell to make it useful, they made it so that you have to spend prestige points to change it to work the same as one of your other damage reactants.</p><p>Putting prestige point in converts it to proc off spells, combat arts, and (I think) autoattacks.  Definitely seems off to force you to use prestige points in order to make an ability useful. </p><p>Whether it's worth putting prestige points in that ability instead of something else though, I don't know.  A more experienced inquisitor would be able to tell you that.  I haven't used my inquisitor since the GU came out, so haven't really had a chance to play around with prestige points on him.</p>
