CWDT not always working
Hey so I have an issue with the support gem Cast when damage taken.
I'm bit confused on the way it works... I watched videos and searched on internet and tried to do all the same but it doesn't work.
I am trying to use the simple setup CWDT / Endurying cry and immortal call. But for some reason endurying cry just appear as normal skill in my bar, it isn't procced by CWDT.
I tought it might be a level issue, but it isn't...
My CWDT is level 3, endurying cry level 6 so the requirement from CWDT is level 42 max and my enduryinbg cry required level is at 34...
I tested with other spells aswell. And even a level 1 orb of storm doesn't work.
Can someone explain to me ?

Endurying cry doesn't proc from CWDT. You have to cast in manually (or get your charges by other means).

Immortal call needs to be in the appropriate level compare to CWDT to be proc-ed, and CWDT procs when you get hit enough (level-dependent).

To elaborate on Enduring cry: It is not concidered a "cast" anymore and instead has a new classification called "warcry", hence why it won't trigger. (All the triggers only "cast" on action, unless otherwise specifically stated.)

Orb of storms on the other hand is a cast, however it's description has the text: "You can only cast this skill yourself, directly" meaning it can't be supported by any trigger gems.

Have you looked to see how much damage you need to take before it activates? Because it's not directly on any hit you take.

To be specific, cast trigger support only work on non channeling spells (and real spells, spell totems and spell traps are considered totems and traps for mechanic purposes). exclusive self cast spells (there are some of them, like lightning orb, it's written is the description) can't be used with triggers or type modifiers (spell totem, trap and remote mine).

has anyone had a problem with it not proc immortal call? i have all the properly levels linked in the right order and had been working fine til most recently. To the point it wouldnt trigger no matter how much damage i was taking. is there a hidden formula or only works with specific damage types? The 4 link set up hasnt been leveled since i was about 50th and yet now at 84th its just stopped triggering my IC. Any ideas?

You can actually make Enduring Cry trigger without any input from you. However, since its a Warcry and not a spell, you'll have to use a Cry When Damage Taken Support.

well ive since taken it off cause it stopped procing leve 1 cwdt level 3 immortal and increased duration. the typical set up... like i said was working til i got over 80th level then wasnt procing ever so i took it out. i know it should proc after 528. with over 4k life taken 50% life should proc...right?

so i reset up the same link and ran through the lake fast and let things hit me and see it proc for melee hits.... is that the only way it works through phy damage or maybe the animation wasnt displaying properly before?

it procs off physical or elemental hits but not damage over time effects since they dont hit.
