Caluurion Set - viability and proc consistency

So I have a set of caluurion’s legacy which I was using on my magblade (pve) just because, I have since re-rolled this char as a healblade.
The proc from it is very strong, roughly 16k hit (I’m aware the tooltip says 12k), which from stealth pretty much always hits when you start a fight and is generally 1 hit ko for a trash mob.
What I’ve noticed is that the proc visuals rarely happen after the first time it goes off during a fight and I haven’t really noticed the damage a 2nd time even with the relatively short cooldown (10 seconds).
Has anyone else noticed this?
Are the visuals bugged and the damage does in fact occur again after 10s (with a crit)?
This set looks quite strong on paper but I almost never see it recommended, is there a reason for this?

It can never hit in pvp as per tooltip due to battle spirit effect it do half damage = 6450

gnarlyvandal✭✭✭@Lord_Dexter that’s like everything in this game though..?
And I’m not that bothered about the tooltip damage, just on whether the proc is reliable/consistent?0 -

In pvp it is reliabile and consistent.
It's not instant, it has animation, can be blocked and reflected also your single target magicka ability has to crit.Edited by Lord_Eomer on June 15, 2018 3:26PM1 -

✭I'm trying out War Maiden gold jewelry/staffs, Valkyn Skoria and Caluurion on my Dunmer Magblade these days. It's a lot easier than before to get "bursty kills", something I honestly struggled with on mag earlier. Skoria is a little hard to proc on this setup; Crippling Grasp seems to work best, even though resto heavy attack seems to work too(?).
Sometimes Skoria kind of ejaculates at the same times as Caluurion kicks in from Lotus Fan, that's a mean burst of damage. If I use Concealed Weapon from sneak as an opener, then Soul Harvest into Crippling Grasp pretty much everyone not a tank or not having their shields up is really dead. Caluurion is a cheesy proc set, but a really good one. I don't worry about the cooldown, most people are dead within a matter of seconds anyway. If they ain't, I better move on and try something else.1 -

Yes, when Caluurion procs from distance, I don't really care that much. If it hit or miss, so be it. My build is a melee magblade one, and there's no dodging/reflecting/blocking that. So far I've never seen anyone do it, most of them are stunned or whatever when Caluurion procs for me. :-)0 -

hes a magblade.... that means he will crit them (proc) , stun them (concealed weapon, soul harvest) and be right next to them out of stealth which means it will hit the target unless they have CC immunity. then it might miss, depending on how close you are.1
