<DIV>How do the passive Frontal AoE AA from the Agi line and the Double Attack AA from the Stam line stack?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1)  Can the 2nd attack from Double Attack fire another Frontal AoE?</DIV> <DIV>2)  Can an extra attack from the Frontal AoE proc a Double Attack?</DIV>

Just a guess, but I'd say no.  Otherwise you'd end up in a potential endless loop of procs, proc'n more procs.<div></div>

I was wondering about this myself earlier in the week. I'm not so much concerned about the endless loop possibilities. I'm sure that won't happen. But, the thought of having a chance to double attack all targets in front of you sounds fun. I'd be interested in hearing about any experiences that people have had with this.

<DIV>The experience i had was bad it rarely worked and when i noticed it working it was because it was dragging mobs from different floors or rooms and causing tons of adds in exp grps.  Though it can be turned off its not worth it. </DIV>

<P>Also the Agi frontal AE will break mezzes, while our other AE abilities are mez-safe.</P> <P> </P>

<P>I haven't Tested this setup yet, but what I think the code probably looks like is this:</P> <P>Character goes to swing, checks for chance to double attack, if double attack occurs, then each attack is unique with its own chance to proc a frontal aoe which is considered as that 1 hit still.</P> <P>To explain that... Each swing has it's own class built for it.  It is its own entity with proc chances, dmg cap, recovery timer etc.  The frontal arc achievement just converts that attack to be a multi mob attack.  So if you were to proc on it, it would hit each mob in the encounter, BUT does not have a chance to proc a double attack on each mob after that... cause if that were the case, then any time you double attacked the second attack would be able to proc a double attack and go into endless loop... which i'm sure they covered that problem from happening when they made the code in the first place.</P> <P>~Abomidable</P> <P>~Lords of the Triple Moons</P>

Double attack does not procs anything, it did a while ago, but got fixed. So now second attack does not proc poison, buff effect, spell effect, another double attack or anything that might proc. Its just a simple auto hit with a wepon that does not proc anything.AOE hits have a chance to proc though. On each mob they hit, with everything that might proc. But if aoe procs double attack, it will be a single weapon hit on the mob you target, not on every mob you got with aoe.
