Is Repurpose Soul broken?

edited August 2018 in The Temple
I was reading some guides earlier today and one I found (from Mod 13) said that Repurpose Soul was the main source of heals for a Righteous DO. I didn't have it at all in my feats so I respecced and added it. It doesn't seem to work very well at all. I've been going back over my log after fights and it seems like it a) doesn't proc on every crit and b) Doesn't do nearly 15% of the spell's damage as healing. I had a 102k crit on mob and only my companion was in range for the heal and I saw a green 140 pop up over his head. Checked the log and sure enough, it said Repurpose Soul heals for 140.

Right now, this feat seems like a waste of points to me but I figured I'd come here and ask to see if I'm missing something.

    I suspect the small heal is from your weapon enchant when critted, can you check it again? Eg. 100k crit with chains, 1k weapon damage from weapon enchant, gives you 1000*0.15=150 heal with repurpose soul.

    Well I didn't screenshot the log so I can't check that one. I'll keep an eye out going forward but I'm pretty sure that's not the case. First off, from what the tooltip says on the feat, it should only proc off of critical spell damage (I know, sometimes tooltips are misleading) but second, and this is the big one, I've never seen a Repurpose Soul entry in my log that was 1000+ points. The biggest one I've ever seen was around 850 points.

    Did you used anything else than Dread or Vorpal? Because Repurpose Soul triggers only off the damage of the weapon enchant and not from the power itself for any other weapon enchantment.
    When you are using no enchant, dread or vorpal Repurpose Soul triggers off the power that critted. You can see it in the first three logs under "Triggering from power".

    Yeah, I have a Lightning enchant and I see from your snippets that it procs off enchants. I also noticed from those snippets that you didn't appear to get any procs off of your critical spell hits. I didn't look at every single enchant you listed there but I looked at about half of them and it appears, like me, none of your procs is 4 digits or more. That leads me to conclude that the feat is not working properly and honestly, the way it currently is functioning, it's not worth the 3 points it costs. A 500-800 point heal that appears to only be proccing from weapon enchants is pretty useless when you're getting hit for 20k at a whack.

    My last post was unclear on that one. When using no enchant, dread or vorpal Repurpose Soul triggers off the power that critted. You can see it in the first three logs under "Triggering from power". When using a weapon enchant that procs another hit, like the rest of the enchants listed, then Repurpose Soul procs only from the weapon enchantment and not from the power itself. I have added this to my last post.

    No, the first three logs under "Triggering from power" are all in the thousands.

    I would conclude that the feat is not really useful if you use something else than dread or vorpal and that it is a really high indirect triggered heal when using dread or vorpal.

    Yes, it is bugged with every weapon enchant except dread and vorpal.
    I think there are some bug reports for other feats that are similar to this one.

    Cut me a little slack here man. I've been playing this game for a rather short time and I put the Lightning enchant on because it's the free one you get when you hit 70. I don't have a lot of AD to just buy whatever I want from the AH. Now that I know that my enchant is the source of my issues though, I will remedy that as soon as I'm able to.

    @nevertwi thanks for the information. You got me pointed in the right direction and saved me a retraining token.

    I know that Fire of the Gods is also bugged with certain enchantments (e.g. Frost, as I use that). Seems to work with Dread though. I wonder if it follows the same principle as above with repurpose soul .. ?

    FotG simply will not proc at all on most powers if you use those enchantments. Those enchantments will also bug out magister's patience in a similar manner and the lostmauth set. They probably bug other stuff as well, but those are the only 2 things that jump to mind. Due to the bug with FotG on DC, using 1 of these enchants probably reduces your dps in comparison to not using them, so I would not touch them at all.

    @osprey39 are you on pc? Moderate dreads are quite cheap on PC atm and if you want 1 ill mail it to you. If so, what is your charname@handle?

    How is it not bugged with Dread. Dread still has a weapon enchantment hit.

    Dread has crit severity buff for encounters, + a DoT (that is really tiny and doesn't scale the say other weapon enchants do). So it doesn't have a weapon enchantment hit in the same way that other weapon enchants do.

    Also, I can't remember clearly... but when this happened with something else (feytouched was breaking +damage buffs maybe?), the dev commented that this happened because of a finicky order or resolution that bubbled up with the extra enchant hit. For all the wep enchants, you see the enchant hit before repurpose soul. For Dread, the DoT doesn't kick in until after repurpose soul. So the timing is different, which results it not having the same bug. Pure speculation of course :)

    For all the wep enchants, you see the enchant hit before repurpose soul. For Dread, the DoT doesn't kick in until after repurpose soul. So the timing is different, which results it not having the same bug. Pure speculation of course :)

    No, Repurpose Soul can be listed in the log before the hit is listed.

    [Combat (Self)] Your Repurpose Soul gives 488 Hit Points to you.
    [Combat (Self)] Servitor deals 1679 (8393) Physical Damage to you with Melee Attack.
    [Combat (Self)] Critical Hit! Your Lance of Faith deals 26512 (20909) Radiant Damage to Servitor.
    [Combat (Self)] Critical Hit! Your Frost Weapon deals 4129 (3256) Cold Damage to Servitor.

    Probably because the ingame combatlog is not " threadsafe". You still may be right with the rest of your post.

    So in effect, Repurpose soul is bugged with the enchantments which trigger from the weapon enchant?

    Yes, it is bugged with every weapon enchant except dread and vorpal.
    I think there are some bug reports for other feats that are similar to this one.
    I know that Fire of the Gods is also bugged with certain enchantments (e.g. Frost, as I use that). Seems to work with Dread though. I wonder if it follows the same principle as above with repurpose soul .. ?
    FotG simply will not proc at all on most powers if you use those enchantments. Those enchantments will also bug out magister's patience in a similar manner and the lostmauth set. They probably bug other stuff as well, but those are the only 2 things that jump to mind. Due to the bug with FotG on DC, using 1 of these enchants probably reduces your dps in comparison to not using them, so I would not touch them at all.

    @osprey39 are you on pc? Moderate dreads are quite cheap on PC atm and if you want 1 ill mail it to you. If so, what is your charname@handle?
    I actually went to check prices last night and ended up buying one when I realized they were affordable for me. I appreciate the offer though!

    Hi, RN i'm using a pure frost anchant on my DC, you say it's better to change it for something else or to remove the talent and take something else? I mean to move the 3 points in RS and use them in Initiate of the Faith
