Spooky Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 I just read new changelog and I really like the change to Lighting Rod which makes it a viable item to get. However in test mode I found it isn't procced on Kerri bounces (Glaive Wurm) as, for example, Pyre does. I know there are some items which passives are triggered by attack itself not by hitting the target (FoE, Explosive Retrofit). Does it mean Lighting Rod also has this kind of trigger?

Madvillain Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 It used to work on bounces but she ended up with unlimited energy with it so they changed it to no longer work, same with Grunty's shotgun passive I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FruitNinja Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 Pyre does not proc on bounces either. Otherwise you'd do a crazy amount of additional damage. Combine that with bandit's and you have yourself a carrying machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iguana Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 Explosive retrofit procs on bounce? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banzaiguy Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 I thought pyre did work for bounces? And I think it applies for all on hit effects. Afaik, Explosive, FoE and Lightning Rod are on-attack(weapon activation) effects, whereas everything else procs on physical damage, even for Balrog's ult and shotgun.

Combine that with bandit's and you have yourself a carrying machine. And thats why most Kerri players rush for Pyre (and they should) because it DOES proc on her bounces as well as Contamination Shard, Time Splitter or FoE active.

Apocalyptic Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 I tested this out in game (it was months and months ago though) and basically nothing proced on her bounces but crit. If something has changed I would love to know about it though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
