Can Equilibrium trigger 'damage taken' effects?

Sauce_Revolution

I can't find anything to confirm either way and was wondering if it can be used to force something like pirate skeleton to trigger when you want it to rather than hoping for procs off enemies.
Tried testing it myself but I can't tell if it's not working or I just have really bad luck, anyone know for certain?

Beardimus

Yep, it certainly used to anyway

FakeFox

Yes, it counts as being hit by deadric damage.

Ignore the above two posters, it does not proc damage taken sets/effects. And same goes for Malevolent Offering (and morphs), first thing I tested when they changed Agony in update 16.

The only thing you can proc with it are sets that proc after you fall below a certain health treshold, which is not terribly useful.

Wut? Lol

You can proc damage taken CP passives with it.

You could proc the swamp raider set with equilibrium, although entropy is a much better choice due to it's length and secondary effects.

EDIT:- Equilibrium doesn't proc the Swamp Raider/Toxic Defiance set anymore (I'd imagine it was a bug/exploit that got through zos QA tests....)

So , Balance is possible to proc Pirate Skeleton / Scourge Harverster ?

Fairly certain it procs damage taken.

Amusingly enough it can actually proc sets like Velidreth or Grothdarr that activate on dealing damage.

It used to . Not anymore . I believe @stileanima 's (tagging for confirmation) MagWarden build was using the CP passive to get some Magicka Return by using this skill and it was changed after some time .

I can also confirm that it used to proc Monster Sets like Blood Spawn and Lord Warden . It doesn't anymore .

It does proc the ''if your health goes below x%'' sets though .

It was used by a few sorcs to proc pirate skeleton under wards, 100%. Other classes / exact mechanic I wouldn't know about

I have been summoned!

@Liofa is correct. Unfortunately it was changed several months ago, but was left out of patch notes. Here's Gina's confirmation of this in another thread:

BOOM! nice confirmation @stileanima +1 insightful!

I wonder if gradually ravage health would work though. As it falls under neither environment damage or skill inflicted damage.
