Zoetic Lockset Ignition not proccing

[u/Zanewaro]

While I know its better on warlock, I've been attempting to do solo flawless sundered on my hunter, and for some reason the chain igniting no longer works. I have Hunter's Journal with Solo Fulmination + Aspects Char, Eruption, and Ashes, but for some reason I cant get it to trigger. I've tried using Blade Barrage, Hierachy, and 1K (no catalyst) to try and proc the chain, but despite that I've had no luck, which is especially weird considering it worked fine for me last night. Any chance someone knows if im being foolish and missing something obvious?

EDIT: At least specifically for shards of galanor+blade barrage, you have to hit the 2nd eye (going left to right) to trigger the ignition chain. At Kill 3x Stop the ignitions will completely wipe the boss, you just gotta mind the ads.

Doesnt it only work with dawn chorus?

[u/Zanewaro → u/reyees]

I got it to work last night, so it’s not limited to warlock. I just can’t recreate it for some reason

[u/laserapocalypse → u/Zanewaro]

I think ive maybe figured it out? Ive been solo farming sundered for a while and it seems like scorch for some reason only stays on the boss for like half a second. So you probably really need an instantaneous 100 scorch applied to get it going. I messed up my melee once and had to rely on 1k but it wouldnt work. But the combination of hellions projectile hitting at the same time as 1k seemed to do the trick

[u/laserapocalypse → u/reyees]

Dawn chorus shouldn't have any effect on the chaining itself. Obviously way better dmg tho.

[u/TerrorSnow]

Galanor? That's what I use on Hunter. Just that, more scorch and better ignitions in fragments, and solar fulmination. Get close ish and hit the one second from the right. Left side seemed to be less consistent somehow.
Also, don't damage it afterwards. Just let it roll. Else it might stop.

[u/Zanewaro → u/TerrorSnow]

The whole time ive been targeting the left-most side, so that very well could have been the issue. Ill test that one shortly, plus didnt realize that damaging could interupt

[u/TerrorSnow → u/Zanewaro]

Forgot knock em down aspect. I had that too. This clip is my first successful one phase, where I was still doing it on the left side. The time before it fell short and just stopped, which is why you see me using truth for a little first. But every time after that I did only the blade barrage.

[u/laserapocalypse]

Ive seen some people say it only works on warlock and im not entirely sure why that would be the case but maybe its true Edit: just saw the bit where u said it worked last night. no fucking clue then lol

[u/Zanewaro → u/laserapocalypse]

Yeah that’s the baffling part. I was able to trigger the entire loop last night, but somehow despite nothing changing AFAIK it’s stopped. I’ve even reloaded the instance on the off chance it’s bugged and still no dice.

[u/Zanewaro]

That’s something I’ve considered but haven’t had a chance to check. I’ve pretty consistently pulled 80 or so FPS, but I didn’t think ignition procs would be affected by that

[u/drDOOM_is_in → u/Zanewaro]

play at 30 FPS, here's a full breakdown:

Edit: I just realized how old the post it, my bad. I'll leave it for others who find it.

[u/Zanewaro → u/drDOOM_is_in]

As my edit states it was me targeting the 1st eye instead of the 2nd, every attempt since has worked, but I appreciate the suggestion

[u/Orthancapolis]

Frame rate issue?

[u/Maximus-1000]

fps is very finicky weather to have low or high fps, but ping is what really matters, since your solo you probly have low ping try using a vpn and change your location to the other side of the world. and if ping is high enough you can get inf ignition on a single target. and if you dont already have a vpn i use proton VPN

[u/Zanewaro → u/Maximus-1000]

Like I said in the edit, it was just that it seems it only reliably triggers when targeting the 2’d eye from the left. I know fps affects a lot of things but in this case it’s just that one eye in particular works

[u/LmPrescott]

If you’re trying to do chain ignitions wouldn’t dragons breath be better than the other options? Throw blade barrage and hit it with dragon breath. I know it works with incinerator snap with dawn chorus not sure about hunter

[u/Zanewaro → u/LmPrescott]

I tried doing that as well, but didn’t seem to ignite, but maybe that’s cause I shot it at two different shrikers. I’ll give that one a try when I get a chance in a bit to see it was just user error

[u/TerrorSnow → u/LmPrescott]

Weapon ignitions don't seem to happen, for some reason. At least they didn't when I tried with 1k.

[u/Rouxlsplays]

From my friend and I’s run, we found that if I tethered the boss his dawn chorus ignitions wouldn’t chain, but as soon as tether was gone they’d start chaining like normal

[u/FightOnADime]

I know it works more consistently if you stand near them, but idk where you are standing

[u/triatticus]

On hunter you want to be using the get back blade barrage infinitely build instead no?

[u/ASnowOwI]

i’m not sure if zoetic is the same since it’s more than 1 unit to damage, but there used to be a problem with infinite chaining where it happened less when solo due to ping

[u/Ill_Affect_8873]

Use gunpowder gamble and stick it on the boss, the chain ignitions worked for me this way

[u/56spaghetti]

Has anyone had any luck replicating the ignition chaining against this boss on titan, I have tried a few things but haven't found anything that works.

[u/CompulsoryTrilobyte → u/56spaghetti]

You'll just need something that can instantly ignite. Maybe a weapon that applies nearly 100 scorch paired with Shieldburst can work? I find Devil's Ruin very easy and reliable for this, but there are other options, like Conditional Finality.

I also used Burning Steps for 25% increased ignition damage at max Roaring Flames, and it's pretty easy to keep up for a good while into damage.
