Hmm a couple confirmed Ursena procing mana delay with special skill

Been trying to figure this out from context from many threads… what does “proc” mean?

Guvnor · December 17, 2020, 12:17pm

Process

Mr.Spock · December 22, 2020, 8:43pm

I thought it was “programmed random occurrence”

Mr.Spock · December 22, 2020, 8:45pm

Also, I can confirm that special skills from sorcerers that deal damage CAN proc Delay. So, Vanda is a great sorcerer as she’s very fast and hits all, making it quite likely to slow some enemy heroes down.

Reddit has conflicting information…? Who would have thought it!

Either way, it has the same end definition; that being “proc” is shorthand to indicate an event/action which triggers a chance based second action/event.

Mr.Spock · December 23, 2020, 12:45am

No! One of us must be right!

g8slord · December 23, 2020, 12:54am

We’re you able to confirm by personal use? Having her special cause slow would be big.

Mr.Spock · December 23, 2020, 1:12am

I have confirmed first hand watching cKad attack and proc delay when following with no slashes and no other sorcerers on the field. So, AOE sorcerers can proc delay, which is great news!

g8slord · December 23, 2020, 6:34am

That is a great value add for vanda! (and others)

amrath · December 23, 2020, 7:55am

Color me stoopid, but I dont understand “proc delay”. There are no chance based skills on Vanda, as far as I can see. And I fail to understand what you mean by delay. What’s delayed? I just can’t wrap my head around it.

Vanda is sorcerer class and with emblems she can delay the mana regeneration

Vanda delay
You can look here if you wanna see it in action triggered with special

Good guess

Close enough

This is the version I remember back when RPG video games were mostly Multi User Dungeons.

Proc was originally short for “spec_proc” (spec_proc is short for “special process”[1]) which is a term used by the original programmer of Circle-MUD, Jeremy Elson. It might have been used by the original programmers of diku-MUD as well. Special processes in Circle-MUD are functions that can be assigned to objects, players, and locations in the world such that each time an event occurs, the special process function will be invoked. Special processes were used in Circle-MUD for a wide variety of purposes: Creating room events when a person typed a specific string of text, causing a weaponor piece of armor to perform a magical action, and even causing a mob to do something that it wouldn’t normally do.[2]

It’s amazing how much gaming terminology dates back to MUDs.

Oh crap… I feel old now!

Nicu_braty · January 10, 2021, 4:30pm

SamMe · January 10, 2021, 4:53pm

Awesome @Nicu_braty! I enjoy my Vanda, only lightly emblemed. Hope you enjoy yours a lot!

g8slord · January 10, 2021, 5:08pm

How do you use her? What are your other red options? I have Vanda, Marj (hoping for costumes), and Tyr to pick between for my next red and can’t pull the trigger on one. My only max red now is GM, and BT, Gormek.

Nicu_braty · January 10, 2021, 5:15pm

I have max vanda. Grazul, marjana, redhood, azlar, natalya,. So i use them as require , base on their abilities. Most are high lvl in emblems (.except natalya … all wizards embl goes to vanda)

SamMe · January 10, 2021, 5:24pm

I use Vanda on war defence, raids, emblem Trials, and the map. I have maxed Vanda, 2x Marj, Elena (no costume), and Azlar (no costume). I’m vc2p.

Wait for Costume Chamber next week in case you get Marj costume.
