Chronicles of the Damned bugged?

[Fransens]

First of all it's supposed to summon a spirit on kill (16-26% chance) with a 1 second cooldown.
But what it really does is summon one for one second.
You can barely even spot them because the fade in and fade out animations of spirits take half a second or more so you can BARELY notice it popping off before vanishing again.
Usually only noticable when it happens to kill something.

AND to make matters worse, whenever the damn book summons a spirit this way it ENDS, YES PREMATURELY ENDS your active Wandering Spirits cast.

This turns the whole gimmick of the unique, which in itself is really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cool if you ask me, into an effective WASTE of your ability.
Why would I wanna even spend one point in WS if the unique made to interact with it utterly castrates it half the time?

Please, please, PLEASE dear Devs, tell me this is just a bug and being looked into...

It doe snot work the way you describe it for me. So either you are doing something wrong that breaks it or a node you have interferes with it.

It had that problem on my Warlock that was specced into it.
It had that problem on my Necro that wasn't specced into to it at all.

I play only on Online atm so maybe that messes with it?
I mean even town portal and zoning sometimes breaks as well as movement.

I'm specced into Wandering Spirits and also have the book equipped. I can't cast wandering spirits, they just false start like trying to start a lighter low on fuel

Apparently it's fixed with today's patch.
Will have to try tomorrow when I have more time.
