Imbue Weapons with Destruction Staff?

It seems that you only get the bonus damage if the light attack lands within 2 seconds. But the tooltip clearly says light attacks "used" within 2 seconds. Is this working as intended? If so, it doesn't work well for ranged characters.

    I'll be testing that out on my magblade tonight when I get my psijic skill line unlocked.

    I would think so though, since you can do light attacks with a staff.

    Works fine with me as long as I immediately light attack after Imbue.

    so would LA cast - imbue cast - LA lands work then? I'll try that tomorrow.

    Interesting will have to test this. Would be lame if it doesn't work at max range.

    Have you tried it from max range? I'm also on PS4. Maybe it's only a bug on console?

    I just tested it on PC. It only works on perfect weaves. If you're a half second too slow, it won't proc (the effect needs to be active when the attack hits the enemy or it won't proc). This is only at max range. At anything closer, it's very easy to get off.

    Casting imbue while the LA projectile is in flight DOES work. I use it with a bow.

    You just gotta make sure you light attack right after using it.

    I find this skill works really great with destro staff. It's nice that it refunds also if not used.

    @chaserstorm16909 with destro staff you can cast the LA then do the imbue and it will give the effect when the LA hit.

    If you do the imbue before yout LA it get clunky as hell to cast.

    It probably work the same with bow, but I have not tested. I have not used it on melee weapons either, but since melee hit directly I think you have to cast it before.

    Other question, what about reflected LA? Does the imbue procs on the person who's using reflect or procs on the caster or because of delay it doesn't proc at all?

    Interesting point. You should file a bug report for the tooltip. According to you and other people in this thread, it should clearly say "land" or "deal damage with" LA instead of "use".
