The truth about Proc Rates in Champions Online
Antiproton, a developer over at Cryptic Studios, shared a bit of the inner workings of the game with the users over at the Champions Online forums. He touched on game mechanics revolving around proc rates and how it is based on the speed of the attack that you are using. This was fairly enlightening so read below for the scoop:
No, you aren’t understanding the normalization that Winged was explaining. If you attack with a .5 second attack (like perhaps minigun), then the proc rate will be 12.5%, if you attack with a 2 second attack (that’s activate + charge time), then the proc rate will be 50%. It is a 25% normalized bonus, so that means in your case you are getting 3.75 extra dps out of it, which is a large bonus compared to say a point of Int’s net effect on your dps.
