You CAN proc Viper with a bow

Alucardo

In the following screenshot I started off with a bow attack, then quickly flipped to my dual wield bar



You see 3 numbers show up. I assume they are

- 19,368 as the bow attack
- 3,051 as the weapon enchant
- 12,164 as viper

I'm not wearing any other sets that could have triggered a third damage source.

Actually some people said it wasn't possible, but yeah. Anyway, it needs to be fixed.

Bow light and heavies have counted as melee after a weapon swap for at least 1.5 years without anyone caring for it. Do you really have hope it gets fixed anytime soon?

No hope at all

You dont even have to change weapons to trigger Viper's. Just have either poison or disease enchantment on your bow and it'll proc 100% of the time.

Yeah, people exploiting it or covering for them said it, but I thought everyone saw through the smoke screen since its so easy to test.

Ok, now I understand why i'm always f***ed in PvP, by one shots ....
When you're playing the killer, it's funny (I already tried something like that with a NB 5 months ago), but when you're the dead man .... not really, it's kind of anti game, we just can't play at all.
Hope they'll fix that soon.
