Trap the Soul Guard

[Vyctor]

I recently upgraded to a Trap the Soul Guard accessory. I was testing out to see it proc rates. I noticed that it did not seem to proc at all when I had my Minos on, but it proc'ed three times quickly when I took Minos off. That would suggest some correlation to critical hits on the proc, however none of the times it proc'ed was on a critical hit. Does anyone have more experience or any insight into the trap the soul guard accessory?

Most likely you haven't tested it enough yet.

If it's a 1-3% (most likely), you will probably need to get beat up more often.

The problem with all the guard items is the low process rate (~2%). Like Illuminati said you will have to take a lot of hits to get that to process. Weapons use the same rate, but you can take 100 swings in a minute, take 100 hits in a minute and your dead. They really need to change the rates on items to around 10%.

The rate seems MUCH high when I'm without my Menos than when I'm wearing it. The problem with it on a weapon is that what you're trying to trap often dies before you trap it, with a guard if you get a friendly cleric to heal you while you get beat up, seems to be a much more effective means of collecting gems.

Yeah but 10% for PvE is great...PvP would be ummm loco.

Also 10% on lightning strikes/disintegrates would be pretty nasty too while tanking raid bosses..especially since you can wear more than one. Kinda too much there. Maybe a solid 3% and not 1.5 or 1 or whatever it is.

Lightnaming strike have been pretty solidmally tested as 2%.

so far it's popped 2 times with Menos on and 7 times without it roughly the same amount of wearing time....
