[v3.00.929 PX1-Steam] No Turning Wheel?

[HawkSoft]

I'm not seeing any *tool tip* information on my monk's Turning Wheel ability and the battle log show only crush damage.

 

Battle Forged (she's fire Godlike) does flag up when her endurance falls low enough.

EDIT: But only by the character portrait, not in the tool tip.

HawkSoft— keep in mind that Scion of Flame will only increase the burn damage from Turning Wheel after it's been calculated. I.e. it is not 25% (Turning Wheel) + 20% (Scion of Flame) = 45% burn damage; rather, if you deal, say, 20 crush damage, then it's 20 * 25% = 5 burn damage from Turning Wheel, plus 5 * 20% = 1 burn from Scion of Flame, for a total of 20 crush + 6 burn.

 

That said, there is of course a chance that Scion of Flame is not working at all with Turning Wheel—just wanted to point out the workings because, as with most mechanics in PoE, they tend to be unobvious

Update:

Based on other comments on this forum I re-specked the monk, 500cp wasted (will reload) still no Turning Wheel effect or Scion of Flame.

 

Edit:

Battle forged (my monk, Zu San, is Fire Godlike) does work but it can zap the character, see attached screenshot:

Hey HawkSoft,

 

If you click on the damage in the combat log, it should show the damage breakdown. (i.e 26 damage = 20 crush + 6 fire). If it does, then you know it is working correctly. 

 

Cheers. 

[HawkSoft]

Thanks for the hint Aarik.

 

Zu San is doing burn damage as well as crush damage but I'm not sure it's sufficient for both Turning Wheel and Scion of Flame.

I will check at each opportunity.

Just checked in a minor fight, monk got no wounds so no Turning Wheel effect (as expected) but no Scion of Flame damage either

 

Based on the then the burn damage I saw being inflicted in the Sanatorium fight was probably correct for Turning Wheel.

Sounds about right? If there's no burn damage to increase, 20% of 0 is 0

Drat!

I had presumed that Scion of Flames (etc.) working like the Whip enchantments, thanks for the correction.

Thanks for stepping in and giving a full detailed explanation Andrea! I really appreciate the help!

[HawkSoft]

Now I understand things better   the combat log is mostly showing what I expect.

 

There has been one occasion when my monk had a wound but there was no burn damage, if this happens again is there anyway to grab a copy of the combat log please?

The best thing to do is create a screenshot. You can either use a 3rd party program like Fraps or OBS, but using PrtScn on your keyboard and pasting it into Paint will work just fine.
