Increased Buff duration only works on buffs that don't need an increased buff duration. So basically that affix is a trap and completely useless. Don't invest into it. As for why: I assume it's because of balance reasons, though that's not a valid reason anymore ever since sacred armor was reworked (it used to make you invulnerable. Combined with increased buff duration and cooldown reduction you were able to be permanently invulnerable).

So yeah, I'm pretty sure that affix will be removed at some point because the way it is now, it's completely useless.


Ok, thanks. It seems like that's the kind of information that should be readily available so someone doesn't say MO all of their jewelry expecting it to work :lol: .

Cannot really find anything reliable on the internet so was hoping someone can shed some light into the following:

"15% Ctc lvl 5 Javelin on Striking"

1. What is "Javelin"? Just a normal Javelin Throw? Must be more than that I guess since it has varying levels. What's the damage? Is it AOE or Single Target? What damage type?
2. Ctc = Chance to cast right? Is this spell automatically cast if it procs? Or does my character have to perform a cast-animation?
3. "on Striking" works for range as well? I have seen someone saying yes but could you confirm please?

Lovely thanks in advance :)

Stormfront as an o-skill is still in the affix database for scepters. Has anyone successfully rolled a scepter with stormfront or is that information outdated? I used 20-30 shrines without getting the affix, which might or might not be an indicator.

1. Just normal Javelin throw. It deals weapon damage (not sure what % of it). Level does almost nothing, it is here to differentiate it from other Jav procs, since different levels can proc all at once, and having the same level is simply additive to % chance
2. Yes. Yes. No.
3. On striking works on everything that deals weapon damage. It can be ranged or melee, and multihitting skills will proc it more often.
