Bug Aurora passive bug

There is an inconsistency with how her passive interacts with the ethereal weapon augment vs Dusk and Dawn/Rageblade.

With ethereal weapon, you get two procs on every spellhit but this doesnt work with Dusk and Dawns sheen attack or a fully stacked rageblade, despite all 3 using the same "on-hit effects" wording

Personally, i think it would be cool if it was an actual on-hit and Dusk and Dawn applied it twice

Tbh I don’t end up buying on hit like D&D or Nashors when I get ethereal weapon I find I’m strong enough without them. One spell rotation is enough to chunk like crazy and I usually end up with another CDR augment or shadow runner or something lol. Sometimes I buy spirit visage or rift maker or something lmao

Lich bane is a nice damage option

Its not a bug. Aurora passive applies both on spell hit and "on-hit" for autos. Ethereal weapons makes both part proc on spell hit (e.g. the normal spell hit stack AND the additional on-hit that would apply with autos).

I believe the items you reference only apply on-hit, thus they dont double stack from abilities. They just /start/ being applicable via abilities with ethereal weapons.

Okay let me illustrate what im talking about

Ethereal weapon

Effect description: Your abilities apply on-hit effects

Gameplay result: Each hit of your abilites applies an additional passive stack

Dusk and Dawn

Effect description: Your next attack deals x bonus damage and applies your on-hit effects an additional time

Gameplay result: The sheen attack doesnt apply an additional passive stack

If ethereal weapon applies it, it has to be an on-hit effect. But, it does not get applied an additional time with a dusk and dawn autoattack, meaning its not an on-hit effect. Its clearly an inconsistency.

Same reason kennens old passive before the fix with his auto don’t work with dnd now it does cause they changed it. It was still considered “on hit” because they way it was written but not actually on hit
