ToP is not a proc. It is a applied movement barb

Proced off movement, The only other things that are similar are the Ib's punishing blow and the WH?WE opener which also doesn't crit.
They used to mind and by all accounts the damage was murderously over powered.

Chosens either run Discordant Fluctuation (if not nerfed yet) or Dreadful Agony depending if it's a BW meta or not. The only other usefull auras are Toughness and Ressist. The other effects just get covered better by other classes.

I see more value in organised play from cast time increase and healing debuff, overwhelming enemy heals via pressure wins fights and the minor pressure from the damage auras is meh.

Ya having an aura what would rely on crit to proc a 10% chance to be crit debuff would be way OP compared to just a static AE debuff

Agony did crit on live for a while but they nerfed it. Along with crit on bane shield and ToP

You can run those aswell with 2 Chosen in each group. But they arn't very good tbh. You also get a better cast time increaser with Mara and better healdebuff with dps Zealot.

Crippling Strikes is already being applied as Aoe through Rending Blade and Blast Wave, giving Dreadful Agony the ability proc the tactic through crit wouldn't change the meta at all, just grant the Chosen more fluff dmg. The change would be negligible if any at all. As far as letting the dot from palsy crit, it would be a very small buff, and as we know giving a buff to Chosens is strictly forbidden.
