So templar jabs doesnt proc bleed effects despite being a melee ability

i also just found out that jabs do not proc the azureblight explosion despite being damage over time - its kinda weird

Is that a bug with jabs or are they just considered completly outside of any of the categories they should be in?

    Well I'm not certain about azureblight specifically, but jabs does proc Skoria which has a dot requirement, so might be a bug there.

    For whatever reason, jabs has never proc'd bleeds afaik.

    There were complaints about the Jabs spear being too violent for children to watch, so it has a boxing glove attached when it appears now.

    I found that the bleed only procs on weapon skills and light attacks ratehr than class powers, reguardless of whatever class you use.
    i also just found out that jabs do not proc the azureblight explosion despite being damage over time - its kinda weird

    to quote the set
    "when you deal damage with a damage over time EFFECT"
    in other words, bleed, soultrap, poisons ect.
    rather than abiltites that just hit over time directly...which is a shame as it'd be a worthwhile set otherwise

    also...jabs procs just about every other set out there [including selens for some reason despite not being direct melee damage]

    what you guys are saying here might be the intended ax bleed but the bleed for sure procs from power extraction.



    to the op, jabs is a channel, have you tried flurry? does that proc the set?

    Channels and AoE DoTs, don't work on Azureblight. Jabs is both.

    In other news, Flurry, Hurricane and Deadly Cloak dont work either.

    Indeed and it's powerful enough, because "This effect can occur once every 0.5 seconds.". I guess they made a mistake, I'm sure they wanted 5s. cd, not 0.5s ;). This effect works almost like the Templars had a 2-nd monster set.

    Both Hurricane and Deadly Cloak proc Azureblight, along with pretty much every other AoE DoT I've tested: Caltrops, Boneyard, Splitting Trap, Acid Spray, Mystic Orb, Arrow Barrage, Carve, Detonating Syphon, etc.

    Jabs and Rapid Strikes are about the only things that don't.

    Confirming that NB Surprise Attack and Power Extraction both proc axe bleeds, DW Flurry procs axe bleeds, while Templar Jabs does not. Tested on the target dummy a few minutes ago.

    This game has never had a clear definition for "melee attack." To make things even more baffling, the old version of Ravager (chance for Weapon Damage buff on melee attack) would proc on Jabs but not Flurry.

    Indeed. Flurry doesn't proc it either. Guess they needed to draw the line somewhere.

    That always annoyed the *** out of me. And they never would give us a straight answer no matter how many times we asked.

    It doesn't proc bleeds because it's not a weapon ability.

    It doesn't proc azureblight presumably because it's not applied directly to the target. Rapid Strikes doesn't proc azureblight either FYI which makes me assume it's intentional.

    Right, basically all AoE DoTs proc Azureblight. Just not Jabs. Not sure what kind of tests that guy was doing.
