Greetings, i am currently focusing on a Warder 2H melee build and im mainly using Savagery and rapid strike (granted by item)
My question is if i activate rapid strike, will it allow passives like feral hunger and markovians advantage to activate from savagery while rapid strike is still active and buffing savagery, also will this work if i replaced savagery with cadence?
Thanks.
Yes it will work. Abilities that replace your auto attack (savagery, cadence, fire strike) can trigger “%chance to activate” weapon pool skills. Rapid strike is just like any other aura and will not change this, it will work simultaneously with those abilities if thats what you want to do.
(note that the big hit of cadence cannot also trigger weapon pool skills, so 2 hits you can proc them then the 3rd is always the big cadence hit)
Some abilities are NOT auto attack replacements, even though you have a weapon animation and even % weapon damage. Examples are primal strike, forcewave, blade arc (with the transmuters to make them cast continuously with no cooldown). These scale with CASTING SPEED and CANNOT trigger weapon pool skills (markovians, feral hunger)
