Conductivity Curse not activating

I'm encountering a regular issue where conductivity fails to apply. I believe the issue occurs when using another skill before the curse applies the effect to the enemy. I suspect there is a window between mana consumption and curse application that makes the curse vulnerable to being cancelled.

I have recordings showing Conductivity being pressed, weapon swap occurring and mana being consumed however the curse is not applying.

I have picked up as much 'faster curse activation' to the point where I no longer have the ground animation, however, I'm aware the curse still applies. For reliable curse activation I must use it at least twice or wait for the curse icon to show, this feels longer than the 0.7 second cast time the tool tip suggests and makes me vulnerable to attack.

I also feel like mana consumption should occur once the Curse has applied as there's nothing to suggest curses can fail.

curses are definitely bugged right now, i have issues with curse activation too. My mana will be consumed but no curse activation, i had to try with no monsters around too, it seems like there are pixels or areas where curses won't activate, at first i thought it was corpses that stopped it from casting, but i have been successful in casting curses while mousing over a corpse, so i can't really pinpoint where the issue lies. For now i guess i'll have to spam curse to be sure... shame it costs so much mana.

I also wish it was cast on my cursor and not snapshotting to a body like i was playing on a console. If i use a mouse and keyboard please remove the curse targeting an enemy, i want to curse more than 1 target and try to place the curse between 2 targets but it snaps sometimes to a body.... super frustrating.

This same thing is happening to me. Frustrating.

bumping older thread because im currently having the same problem with the despair curse. visually the curse shows on the ground but when it pops, the debuff isn't being applied to enemies in the area of effect

Hello guys,

I come with the same problem in this new Abyssal league. My two curses (elemental weakness / temporal chains) won't activate on ennemies. The curse effect stays correctly with the cursed grounds support gem but it seems to have no effect whatsoever.
