Does Trident of Last Abyss proc Abyssal Echos (as specialised skill)?

[vapourfire]

Hey.

Using the Trident of Last Abyss which has the proc “100% chance to cast abyssal echo on melee kill (4 sec cooldown)”. I have Abyssal Echo as a specialised skill.

Does it actually proc the Abyssal Echo skill as specialised or does it proc a “default base” version of the skill irrespective of your own specialisation of the skill?

If I manually use the Abyssal Echo skill, I get the little Abyssal Infusion icon for 4 seconds and I am able to see recasts.

When the Trident procs, I do not get the same Abyssal Infusion Icon and I do not see recasts (although its a little more difficult to see when killing mobs).

Not sure if this is a bug or as intended as some of the other skills that can proc, like Smite (proc from idols) proc the specalised version of the skill.

Thanks in advance.

Ive heard it does NOT.

Thanks for the quick answer… I had a feeling it did not…

Would be great if it did as the Trident is actually not bad (for a unique) and an auto proc of the specialised skill would make it very good indeed. Abyssal Form & Temporal Echos would be a wonderful sync point if it worked with the weapon.

Aside: thats the kind of skill/gear matching I hope LE start bringing into the game more - things fitting together like this make me all warm and fuzzy.

Updating this to the bug report section in the hope that it is a bug and not by design.
