Current proc percentage on all levels of the Reaver's self-buff offensive lifetap proc are 10%. Testing on dummys outside camelot has confirmed the proc rate at ~10% on the level 31 buff. At 1.65 the percentage varied in level from 30-50%. Pasted is the best source i could find from Alakazam that breaks down the spell percentages by level:

The buff was 30% proc chance scaling to 50% on 45 spec in soul.
At no point was it 10%.

I really is noticed this solo levelling as at level 7 I was struggling kill blue .

Not sure were find patch notes on this.
But this character builder on this patch level matchs above web site.

It's very clear that the % listed on the first link and if you archive.org www.camelotherald.com is the % of life returned and has nothing to do with the chance to proc. Near the top of the Uthgard bug the dev even points this out, whatever the % chance to proc was it was NOT displayed to the user. So while 10% is probably to low based on research in that thread, please stop confusing the 30%-50% numbers from the lifetap.

After further research Dimir is correct, the scaling % in the skill links is for health returned, not proc %. Noted in the Uthgard link that likely proc rate was 40% for all levels at 1.65 patch. Watched the reaver video posted within the Uthgard link and tallied the number of hits to procs. Came out to 55 procs from 142 successful hits (from what i could tell anyway, video is old and a bit blurry). Came out to a 38.7% proc rate. I'd say that's fair enough evidence to suggest the proc rate was 40%.

From a JeuxOnline guide:

B/ Debt of Arawn

"Très important: A la différence des procs obtenus par l'alchimie, celui-ci a une chance fixe de se déclencher, égale à 30%, et sa valeur ne dépend pas du délai. Donc, à la différence des procs d'alchimie, une arme rapide est plus efficace qu'une arme lente en termes de dégâts."

Very important: Unlike the procs obtained by the alchemy, it has a fixed chance to trigger, equal to 30%, and its value does not depend on the delay. So, unlike the alchemy procs, a fast weapon is more effective than a slow weapon in terms of damage.

I personally recall the lifetap being at around 40% myself.

10% proc rate IS correct. I played reaver at conception and the rate is very low. The 30-50% is life returned. Soulrending is a very lackluster spelline because flex is so strong.

Also proc rate does not increase at higher levels of the spell. I had a slash reaver because I was a noob back in the day and was very disappointed by this, as I thought flex weapons looked dumb with a giant shield. I thought I could rely on soulrending to make up for no flex and it never did lol.. Maybe with traitors dagger slash could be acceptable.

@Bradekes Do you have evidence to back up your claim of 10% proc rate. I think we've all come to the conclusion that the 30-50% is life returned, and that the proc rate is flat across levels. But reviewing old reaver videos and posted guides online has clearly shown the proc rate to be far greater than 10%.

I too have played the reaver since its release, but we have to do due diligence and provide patch notes or objective evidence to support claims.

Yes, the proc rate is far higher than 10%. My memory says 30-40%, but there is better documentation out there.

Corrected to 30% proc chance.
