Grab Bag

The Dark Age of Camelot Grab Bag returns this week to answer a variety of questions from the game's players.

Q. I was wondering, if there is any difference between the proc rates on different chest pieces? I've heard that the Galladoria weapons and armors proc more often than the Dragonslayer gear.

A. Knowing all the ins and outs of armor procs The Lady of the Jewels says: Some armor pieces will have a higher chance to proc than others, even if they are the same type (i.e. both are chest pieces). Proc rate can vary based on the items armor factor, quality, and bonus level. The Dragonslayer armor, for example, has some of the highest proc rates because it is difficult to obtain and high in bonus level. I looked through several armor and weapon drops from Galladoria and compared their proc chance to the Dragonslayer weapons and armor sets. All the items I looked at had the same proc chance, so don't rule out Galladoria drops as being as viable just based on their proc rates.

Q. The Master Level 3 Warlord ability ‘Cowering Bellow’ is no longer working as it should. When I use the ability now, it is no longer dismissing yellow and orange mobs, but instead attracting them immediately to me. Furthermore, in RvR, it is no longer repelling enemy realm pet classes like it used to. The pets keep attacking as normal. What is going on?

A. Frowning just a little bit, the Balancinator tested this issue multiple times: It drove off pets and monsters alike. I could not duplicate this issue. I am not sure of all the circumstances around your situation. If you experience it again, please fill out a bug report with as much detail as you can. It would help us a lot in duplicating this issue.
