Honestly I'm not sure but in the description it states that charged attacks debuff the target. So 1st charged to proc, 2nd charge to debuff then spam. At least that's how I read the process.
First off I'm going to start by saying this. Holy moly there are a ton of people thinking the same exact thing as I am.
I purchased the bow for a simple reason I think a lot of players are not seeing. (8 second proc internal cooldown).
What this CoolDown does is makes it so you can save your more desired procs for the boss, such as when people are clearing up to the boss and right before the boss there are 3-5 mobs in Elite Indigo that seem to be there and NO one wants to proc their kraken daggers and chest (or respective proc set) before boss.
SO... The bow comes in handy finishing the clear of maps swiftly and efficiently to move onto boss. And for a solo player this is more noticeable.
With this being said, I didn't think it was worth it nor will I use it probably in my setup.
Also another thought: given that rusk is an arcane and this weapon is mythic it was never intended to be better than the rusk bow, and it has it's use for certain situational things and perhaps will be useful in Cursed in some way that someone is overlooking.
Regardless of any of this. The bow isn't worth it and now I can't sell it because it seems like even the player base that doesn't touch the forums and doesn't read these comments know the bow isn't of much use.
Id like to see a rework of the proc to put a debilitating de buff on every mob that is in the circle. It's counter intuitive to see the nova and then Miss the mobs you intended to get with your proc. Even though they were in the nova. Off of cooldown.
But that's just one idea. Or an easier one would be crunch some numbers and make base damage higher, dps lower and make them more bursty like chakrams. It would "feel" much better.
Now at the end of the day... I tried it. I sort of enjoyed the proc but think that this bow isn't something that is necessary. And now I'm having an insane time trying to sell the bow and I lowered it 7m gold.
After more testing with shadow set and great hammer sword I would say the thing that is lacking the sword is the speed of charging its way too slow atm (it does good dmg with shadow set on boss not without the set) it could use some haste on the charging part make it faster to charge atm kraken is way faster to charge than star beast hammer if that would change on the hammer than I don’t think it needs anymore adjustments

I agree, way to slow. Still misses the target even when I'm right in front of it. Alone the damage is negligible.
bow weak
gun hammer strong
La rogue no sirve incluso con todos los set más fuertes no rompe sola
gun by itself feels a bit weak even compared to krak gun, maybe increase proc dmg like 10% and also add 10% haste when proc-ing please, it would make it more usable
I used hammer for some time now and I really like the damage buff.
The proc dmg does well enough with ultimate, but doesn't do a whole lot besides that as a boss weapon.
This is made worse by the fact, that the hammer pushes enemies away (So far I found only one use for this, and even that isn't necessary) But if you want to make use of the increased follow up damage of the hammer, the push will make it harder to do so against certain enemies.
There is a reason why rusk, force and krak aegis are so popular besides good damage, which makes it confusing to me, that hammer pushes enemies with its attacks.
Also when I first saw the ground impact of hammer I thought it might do area damage or hit a ton of enemies, but this part seems to be visuals only sadly.
Also +1 on increased charging speed
Star beast weps need to be steonger then kraken in dmg its a lvl 86 wep

As a mage main the gun proc feels weak when compared to kraken. I feel like it should be atleast on par with hyperios in zaar set with regards to proc only.

Definately agree that the procs needs a buff. +1
