Question on SoI with HSR?
Takonic
Ok my question is this, Im wondering If I use Signet of illusions with a skill...Say I SoI'ed Backfire, would the skill be accounted for Illusion instead of Domination? and trigger my 20% Illusion HSR? ....or would I need a 20% HSR on Domination to HSR on backfire ...
P.S im just using backfire as an example

ur backfire will be using ur Illsuion attribute.say ur illsuion attribute is 16.ur backfire's spell will be at 16...if ur illsuion line is 10...ur backfire will be at 10 attribute as well.
Takonic
yes, but would this trigger the 20% illusion mods I have on or ?
Dodo The Extinct
I believe so. Backfire is domination and using SoL with it makes it use the Illusion attribute, thus making it an illusion spell.

SoI does not change the fact that Backfire is a Domination skill. If you used Backfire under SoI, it won't be affected by 20% HCT/HSR mods.

I've long pondered the same thing as the OP and was just about to go check it out - do you have any evidence of this? Or should I go and test it, and document my tests for Guru use?

I know that Illusion +1 mods don't work on non-illusion skills used under SOI, so I'm gonna take a risk and say neither would HSR nor HCT mods.
I could be wrong, but it would make sense those two mods would also not work.
It would mean that SOI's code only augments the attributes rather than switching them.

If it did, then it shouldn't be functioning that way. Kale Ironfist is right, when you use its spell, its only uses the illusion magic's attribute points, it does not become an illusion magic spell. The same thing applies to the fact that mantra of persistence wont affect hexes that aren't in illusion magic, but cast under SoI.

a 20% mod would have to be for the domination attribute, even though you would (hopefully) be using it at 16 illusion.
if that makes sense.

I wanted to try this so I casted 21 spells with SoI and a wand/focus set, both having a 20% HCT with Illusion bonus. I had no point in fast casting and all skills had a 3-seconds cast. (Diversion, Energy Tap and Spirit Shackles)
I didn't noticed quicker casting, even though I didn't record it.
So I believe Kale Ironfist is right.

If the hex used is under the Illusion Magic attribute, it will. SoI does not convert spells into Illusion Magic, it only uses the spells at Illusion Magic's attribute. So if you use a non-Illusion Magic hex with SoI, it will not last longer.
