Crystal Frag "Rapid Fire Mode"

So, got a question. We all know Frag is at least semi-spamable, but after the patch I've noticed that it procs so much faster. For example, I cast a spell, CF insta cast, cast spell, insta cast, cast spell, insta cast. It's not like that every fight, but my last 10 fights every frag I used was the insta cast version. It was rarely ever hard cast. Anyone else noticing this trend?

    It's just RNG. I can go thru 5-6 skills without proc (in this patch too).

    Well, to be honest, it never use to proc this much. Idk. Maybe I was lucky for 5 hours. LOL

    When it casts for any given build and skill bar is RNG, I'm sure, BUT...

    Over time I've become convinced that SOME spells are more likely to proc a frag than others. The more expensive spells seem to do a better job. Cheap spells like Fury and Entropy don't seem to proc Frags as often.

    I found if you cast the same spell over and over it procs less, if you cast two different spells slightly less, I found the most often way to proc it using 3 different spells rotating so no two couples happen in a row.

    And then some times I can go through 12 spells and no proc. Its all rng

    The last few days I've played sorc for my first time since 1.6, and it felt like it was being proc'd a lot more than it used to.

    No offence, but all your methods for proccing are wrong.

    It's RNG, plain and simple.
