Was playing my Thorns/Smiter Backoff back in 1.09d, gave him bits and pieces of HitPower set and regular proc items. At any time, there was only a 5% chance(estimated) that each hit on him would NOT release a spell-effect(excluding Thorns)
Majority of them were level 4 Novas or level 3 Frost Novas. Hell, I wish they made the proc spells a little stronger(maybe level 10 Nova/Frost Nova/CB and req level 60?), and available on EVERY item slot. Heck, even a req clvl 1 "2% chance to cast slvl 1 Charged Bolt when struck" mod for every item would make me a happy camper.
My dream mod would be a "100% chance to cast slvl 1 Frost Nova when struck" affix. Imagine a Meat Shield™(Shockwave/Cyclone Armour Werebear, Thorns Paladin, Energy Shield Sorc, etc) character standing in the middle of a mob of monsters wearing all items with that affix.
Yes, I'm insane. Yes, I enjoy it. No, I don't want your drugs.(hmm, might be worth putting that in my signature!) B)
