I'm not sure if anyone else see's this or if its a resist issue, or i may be thinking to much into this.

But i cast spell curse and it lands on all 4 targets. Then i follow up with dissecting gaze hits all 4 then Ego melt again all 4. Now spell curse doesn't tic dmg even once.

Is this because ego melt has a daze component? Then why doesnt dissecting gaze trigger spell curse? Does the spell dmg have to be single target on each target to get it to curse to proc. I ask cause even though curse will land on 4 mobs i get one icon in my maintained spell window and it tics off when i cast single target spells on one mob and will count 1 trigger of dmg, but i do not see it apply dmg to the rest of the encounter wich it shouldnt if im only causing dmg to one mob of the encounter.

But like i said none of my group dmg spells will trigger spell curse for me. now in a group with other mages it triggers like crazy. Now i turned logs on and ill see if i can prove my issue. just tossing this out there to see if I'm just wrong on how this spell is suposed to work.

If you cast it on an encouter only does mobs take damage that got hit by a spell attack.
Gaze, Ego melt and maybe even Shock wave should trigger it. if it's still on the mob

Shh, it's a secret but curse is landing 5 procs on each group member so your icon will show 5 until there are only 4 total procs left amongst all members.

I use the same spell set up, curse followed by gaze and ego and shockwave. It's nice damage to groups.

It was a secret.

It's ok, I typed in super-special ink. You have to be a really uber coercer to be able to read it.

Hmm, I thought it worked slightly differently. I thought it applied 5 triggers to the encounter as a whole, but aoeing would only trigger one.

I'm pretty sure it's still a green button.

I've noticed this too, its buggy and inconsistent, to say the least.

It doesn't seem buggy or inconsistent, it's very predictable.

Spell curse applies a buff on the encounter that has 5 charges (with aa's).
An individual spell attack against a single target in the group will use one charge and deal damage to the mob.
An encounter spell attack cast will use one charge, and deal damage to all mobs in the encounter.
An hostile spell (non damaging) doesn't trigger charges.
A pbae spell attack cast will use one charge, and each creature in the encounter that is affected by the attack will take additional damage (may not hit entire encounter due to target limit).

Ideal scenario is you cast spell curse, and cast dissecting gaze, ego melt, and shock wave, while some other mage casts 2 area spells as well, all while nobody casts any individual attack spells.
