Do Devotion skills have to be assigned to attacks in order to proc?

Grim Dawn Gameplay Discussion

I’ve had my Devotion skills (Turtle and Behemoth) attached to my two buffs (Mogdrogen’s Pact and Field Command), and they both level up, but I’m wondering…does Giant’s Blood need to be attached to a weapon attack in order to proc? I don’t know if I’ve ever noticed it proc before. It does level, but is it working?

Thanks!

as long as you attached them to your auras and you toggle the aura on then it should be good…

Thanks! Just wanted to know I wasn’t wasting my time with it! :slight_smile:

You cannot assign Giant’s Blood to an attack skill at all.

To view the skills a devotion can be assigned to, simply click on that devotion skill (doesn’t matter if you have acutally activated that devotion).

Thanks, didn’t even realize that!

slightly OT : Do the Devotion skills change if you bind them on no cd skills or on skills with cd, as in become more powerful?

7

say non cd based forcewave gives 15% chance to activate the celestial power falcon swoop, while its cooldown form gives 39% chance…

skill remains the same and only changes on the chance of activation :wink:

What does this mean?

The chance for a devotion proc increases with the cooldown of the skill its attached to. Meaning the higher the cooldown of the skill, the higher the chance for the devotion to proc.

Also scales with the duration of the skill you assign it to (or maybe the devotion itself? dunno) as well:

autoCastEquation = procRate * (1 + (cooldown * 81)/100) * (1 - (attackDuration * 11) / 100)

Yeah, forgot to mention that. Examples like transmuted BWC that has a base 5 seconds cooldown but because it lingers for around 5 seconds, it doesn’t increase devotion proc chance that much compared to a skill with 5 seconds cooldown that has no lingering time.

Ah, thanks!
