Yes, both of those have messages that appear in your logs, and if you're running ACT you can configure it to sound off every time one of your items procs. I'm at work, so I don't know what the exact text is, but cast some spells in your inn room and watch your logs, you'll see them popping up.

The reason I was asking about the helm proc is because I sometimes miss the blue icon that lights up when the helm procs, and it's always nice to cast a grp reactive or a power intensive spell when the proc is up. But, no joy, unless they added one in since the last update, which I doubt.

The only proc that is worth having on a notify from ACT is the Claymore proc, since that too can make a noticeable difference if used at the right time.

So I know how to use the very basics of ACT... How to parse healing and dps and such. Do you set it the same way you set it to let you know when an AE or spell from a mob is incoming? Would be nice to have a warning when claymore does go off.

My understanding is unless it has a damage/heal component or combat text, ACT will not be able to do anything with it. So Claymore, Presence of Mind, Star Darkened Armouring, Dark Resolve, etc ACT can't track.

There's ways to make ACT see it, but unless ACT is changed, it can't track it. Although if somebody was to make a plugin for ACT to track procs that show up in the "Spell" section with what they give off, you could easily track it.

Oh, now I'm intrigued, would love it for Presence of Mind...
Played about with it for fucking hours one night and couldn't get it to log anything to do with it.

How can I make it "see" it?

Pinski

Well, I don't if Presence of Mind does some kind of "emote" in the annoying Spell portion of chat logging(you know, the one which spits all sorts of dumb-shit that nobody ever looks at, and probably just removes from their chat window), but if you can get Presence of Mind to proc, and watch that spam and see it show up, you can just use the View Encounter Logs and search for the spam associated with Presence of Mind and see how many times it went off.

Of course, that is if it does any kind of emote so you can see it, otherwise well, no way to tell :\

There's also probably a way to create a plugin for ACT to parse that information and tell you exactly how many times it procs based on the encounter, and whoever was to make that plugin could probably plug in all the other procs like that so you can see how often they go off.

Sadly, I can't see anything, nor for Dark Resolve, Star Darkened Armouring, I don't have the Arm of Erollisii anymore though. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough for them? Dunno, will have another go later in my Inn room.

I am fairly certain that Presence of Mind doesn't have any kind of emote or text go off when it procs, but do believe I've seen a line of text for the claymore proc. I've gotten used to just keeping my eye on the buff bar and just seeing the icon pop up, but I remember at one point looking at my logs and finding a random line of text for the claymore.

I'll look into it more when I get home tonight and see if I can find exactly what it is.

Phrozen

Definately no text, I have the Barbute of Ancient One and Mantle of Darkened Hues and can't see a text or emote on it, all that comes up is the Icon in the effects bar from what I can see.

I looked more into the claymore proc, and there is a line of text in the log, saying something along the lines of "your group is filled with the blessing of marr" that I believe goes with the cure portion of the Claymore proc. What I haven't been able to figure out yet, though, is this: the claymore, as I read it, has 2 procs, one for the heal increase and one for the cure. Have any of you noticed one proc going off and not the other, or do they always proc together? I would assume that they proc separately, and the line of text I'm seeing in my logs is just for the cure.

But... with the testing I did a few days ago, it appears that the heal proc is always up when the cure proc goes off. If it is indeed true that they always proc together, and that everyone else's claymore doesn't throw off the same line of text in my logs, then I could reliably track those procs. Yay for being vague and confusing!
