% Chance to cast smite on throwing attacks

The 2x2 idols with 25% chance to cast smite on throwing attack has no indicator in game that there’s a limit of times it can happen but on lastepochtools.com it shows (up to 10 times per 2 seconds)…

I ask because this patch the devs added a lot of limits to skills that can only proc X amount of times in X seconds, but it’s all in plain text in game, no such text was added/corrected to this idol

Is lastepochtools.com correct? also is it possible that the 10 times per 2 seconds is only applied to each idol individually by chance? (20 times per 2 seconds if i had 2 idols equipped?)

I believe it’s 10 times per 2 sec globaly and idols text just missing info.
Thats kinda huge anyway, 5 times per sec average. My spellblade attack speed like 2.5 per sec, not maxed, but you get the point

You can get a lot of hits/procs from orbitting hammers on bosses, especially the 3 dragons. Many years ago I had ~40% from 4 of the old value idols & it was almost a constant beam of Smites on that fight.

Update: I just saw for the first time a sealed champion affix of 50% chance to cast smite on hit with throwing attacks (up to 10 times per 2 seconds).

Shows that wording specifically in the affix. Very weird that the part in parenthesis wasnt added to the idol version after specifically putting that part in for a brand new affix thats very connected/related.

I think this was asked somewhere & the rate limit is included for the idol, just not specified.

Someone asked this exact question on discord, and one of the yellow nicknames (EHG team) replied:

If it’s not showing in the tooltip then please press F8 (or hold start on controller) while the tooltip is showing to screenshot it and submit a bug report so we can fix the wording.
If it’s not showing in the screenshot preview, describing the issue in the text box should be sufficient :thankyou:
