Poet's pen + Lightning Warp Interaction bug

Hi friends,

I have been fiddling around with 'lightning warp' and 'the poet's pen' unique. And I keep running into some unexpected results.

1) So i press button to do a attack (Power Siphon) which triggers the poet's pen to use the socketed lightning warp. Than randomly in the map I seem to get stunned. My character stops attacking, which also stops my poet's pen lighting warps.

"Press Q to perform attack. Don't let go. Get "stunned" than have to release and press Q again to perform the loop again."

Character:
*Character has 100% stun avoidance.
*Character has 100% ailment avoidance.

Map:


Possible Causes:
(Might not be possible)
*Delirium mod that does a "stun" or debuff
*Harbingers debuff
*Desync?
*Bug?

2) Power Siphon and Lightning warp + Poet's pen has a flickerstrike effect. Where I teleport uncontrollably around. Probably because of the targeting of Power Siphon also making lightning warp target the same enemies.

I would love to hear some of your ideas on what causes this. I will keep adding to the possible causes. And if GGG reads this I hope they fix the interaction (2)
Kind regards,

BRJM

This isn't a bug, and I don't think GGG would ever consider changing it.

Well, I put a spell in my Poet's Pen and use an attack skill which - given my off-hand is a shield - can only possibly attack with my Poet's Pen. But my Poet's Penn is triggering the spell I placed in it when I attack with it, and I don't want it to do that.

Like... put the Lightning Warp gem someplace else. Anywhere else.

Problem solved.

Dunno which browser you use - but over on Imgur, if you right-click on the image then there should be some kind of kind of "Copy image address" option in the contextual menu.

The image tag is dumb; it needs a direct link to the image (typically ending in .jpg or .png, etc.) to embed the image. If you just give it a link to a page the image exists on, it won't know whether you want the image, or Imgur's logo, or one of the pictures in the 'Trending' section, etc. It can't handle a webpage; it needs to only receive the image file itself to work.

Firefox calls it "Copy Image Link" fwiw.

It's there, the wording is either inconsistent(non-existant) or ps just isn't working how it should. In the discription i put some timestamps, you can read that and understand what is wrong. The sudden "stop" when hitting the harbinger, as shown in the video is problem 1.
Kind regards,
