It's probably the one Sevryn posted:
Quote:
origin of "proc": special PROCedure. meaning something that gets checked when you do something, like a % effect when you attack.

Can place one of several different buffs on attack, such as Corruption or Fury Swipes. Certain items and abilities grant a buff placer on attacks. Only one buff placer will function for each attack.

a compilation of the orbs and their interactions inside a spoiler tab would be a nice addition to this. including the interaction between attack type and armor type would also help.

adding as much useful info as possible would be great. this IS advanced mechanics anyway.
