What does shock damage and low health mean?
I am refering to a sorcerer passive in the stormcalling tree.
It says: " Disintegrate: Give all shock spells a 10% chance to instantly disintegrate low Health targets"
My maximum health is currently slightly below 3000hp.
This is what I experienced yesterday:
So low health means 50%? What do you guys think about that?
(the sorcerer was emperor at that time if that helps
)
Concerning "shock damage spells only" I have my doubts too.
Here low health means abit more than 33%.
And fire means shock apparently.

ArRashid✭✭✭✭1) the upload site is a MESS, try using tinypic.com instead of showing us REALLY small pic covered by huge advertisement..
2) that screen only shows last 5 sources of damage. You can't just count that and say that you were at 50% HP.. I even had a screen where all listed damages were under 30 HP and I died.. because I was stuck on ground after being knocked down and CC-break wasn't responding
3) Disintegrate should work when hit by shock damage under 20 (or is it 25?)% hp. That means you must have been bellow that threshold and just not notice it.
4) I think Disintegrate proc OVERRIDES the damage it procs from, because it's in every way superior to it - there's not reason to list another hit when the target's dead anyway, it would just slow down the system with another calculation. Instead of let's say hitting 100 dmg with a shock enchant, you get ~15x+ more damage instead.2 -
chaosme✭✭✭Disintegration should only proc for high damage when the target is being hit by lightning element damage when below 25% health. 25% health is generally what the game refers to as low health. For the record, it is possible for disintegration to proc on non low health targets but it only deals 1 damage in those circumstances.
Disintegration also does not overwrite the damage that procs it; at least not in any of the addons that show your damage done through the API. I doubt the death recap would be different but no one other than ZOS knows for sure.
On a side note, it is interesting to note that disintegration can proc even for non-sorcerer characters if they are using evil hunter combined with lightning damage. I have seen it proc multiple times when I was using crushing shock + evil hunter against daedric and undead mobs.0 -
I dont have any advertisement, my adblocker does not discover anything there. Sorry if you are having problems.1) the upload site is a MESS, try using tinypic.com instead of showing us REALLY small pic covered by huge advertisement..2) that screen only shows last 5 sources of damage.

Would rather prefer a combat log provided by ZOS
Is this screen helpfull at all? Doesnt seem so....
I died in a sec3) Disintegrate should work when hit by shock damage under 20 (or is it 25?)% hp. That means you must have been bellow that threshold and just not notice it. yes I didnt notice anything just from 100% to 0.
I though the disintegrate damage would display as the rest of my life left because it would make sense.4) I think Disintegrate proc OVERRIDES the damage it procs from, because it's in every way superior to it - there's not reason to list another hit when the target's dead anyway, it would just slow down the system with another calculation.

Interesting That would explain the second screenshot. Nevertheless autodeath at 25% seems abit too overpowered, how does it work out in pve on bosses?

Would not explain my second screenshot where I am receiving 2 times fire reach from the same person before that person disintegrates me.
