OFFICIAL: Floating Text Follow Up - Procs

Greetings! Terramak recently posted about the reorganization of floating text, and I have a follow up in regards to the non-damage portion of this change. Now that ability names have their own dedicated space in the UI, we're doing an audit to identify any prominent powers that would benefit from floating text. Due to the individualized nature of procs, I have to make that determination on a case-by-case basis, so I could use your help in identifying powers that you would like to see displayed!
Specifically, I'm looking for triggered effects that you would need to see in order to properly react to them. For instance, if you can randomly proc an effect which causes your next encounter power to deal extra damage, this would be worth displaying, as it might change which power you'd choose.

Blood Lust and other Master Boons were mentioned in the other thread, so I'll be looking those over. Anything else that is suggested here, I'll take a look at as well. Items, feats, class powers, whatever - if you can provide the name and a short description of why it would be useful to display, that would be fantastic =)

Conversely, if you know of any powers that are causing spam by displaying their names in unwanted situations, please list those as well.

Thanks!

    I would think the chicken augment proc would be important to see so you know it has kicked in. Back in the day, 'RETREAT!!!" used to show up.

    I know that this wasn't asked for, but PLEASE, as a healer, have separate toggles for my outgoing damage and my outgoing healing! I usually only want to see my OGH, and not my damage floaters, but there is no way for me to turn off my own outgoing damage floaters and still see my OGH floaters!

    Hi @xalkastiz#5524 I think the master boons are the big one. It's supposed to be an achievement to get them, it takes some time of grinding to reach them and unlock them and then you make a serious choice as to which one you want, and it's kind of a milestone in the game when you fully unlock it, so it's a satisfying feeling for a player to visually see when they're proccing and also a verification that they're working.
    Apparently pointing-out the bleeding obvious is a 'personal attack'.
