Question about relayers
Posted: Fri Jul 17, 2015 8:52 am
Hullo.
Quick question for you smartie-pantses out there, re: relayers. The wiki says, "Armor, Clothing, & Jewelry will not retain offensive skills such as Hit Lighting, or Hit Life Leech. Any properties listed under Weapon Hits on the information gump of a levelable weapon will not apply to a weapon re-layered to a new piece of equipment." That suggests there's no point adding any of the Hit lightning/fireball etc stats to a relayer that will be, say, a shirt or a kilt. Fine.
However - my first relayer (a shirt) has had the Hit Lightning stat of my weapon transferred over to it, and moreover, I'm finding that - on occasion (it's only 1%... I stopped raising it when I read the above wiki entry) - I'll be fighting non-magical foes, and a bolt of lighting will strike them, presumably from me. My current weapon has NO hit lightning, so the only thing I can guess is that the 1% hit lightning on my shirt actually IS doing something.
So, I guess my question is two-fold: 1) does anyone have any views re: that wiki entry? (2) can anyone offer an explanation as to why I'm landing occasional hit-lightning blows, when the only hit lightning anywhere on my character is the 1% on my shirt?
Cheers.
Matt

) but considering, for example, i got a relayer with 58% physical area in it and another one with 42% fire area and never seen em proc so i think it's not possible, unless it's somehow glitched (dunno if that happens).
