I’ve been playing for years on ps4 and I still don’t understand what makes a armor set proc when it’s on the back bar.

What are the guidelines or rules that allow for some sets to proc on the back bar and others that don’t.

Can someone please explain it to me?

All I see is hate and rage from people who don't understand how to.....

    The condition of each prc set is describet in the item description you see in your inventory. The thing with why its often used on the back bar is, that you cam run an 2piece weapon on your frontbr and still have two 5p piece bonuses.

    For example:

    Maelstrom flame staff FB
    5pieces armor of any set
    3pieces armor/jewelery of burning spell wave
    flamestaff of burning spellwave BB

    So each time you swap on your BB you have the chance to proc extra spell damage which will be active for 8 seconds regardles of BB or FB.

    Edit: the proc condition is not bound on any bar, you just need the required number of set pieces active.

    Yep, this - also a front bar 5pc and back bar 5pc with potato jewellery.

    OP, I not really sure what you don't understand as its really quite simple. You know your back bar proc set shouldn't be procing when you're on your front bar, right? There may be some exceptions but these are likely to be bugs... like when 2H/DW bleed passive would proc from bow attacks in cryo if you bar swapped quickly (a bug probably compounded by the crippling lag in cyro).
