Hi etoyoc, are you speaking about any particular force staves? Only two of the four types of force staves can roll the Transfer Peril blessing, because the other two cannot hit weak spots.

Can have Transfer Peril: Equinox Mk III Trauma Force Staff & Equinox Mk IV Voidstrike Force Staff
Can’t have Transfer Peril: Rifthaven Mk II Purgatus Force Staff & Nomanus Mk VI Surge Force Staff

If the Surge staff can’t hit weak spot then why does it have a perk that does?

I think it’s primary use can? But yeah there are a lot of blessings that don’t roll at the same rate. Exorcist I have never seen on force sword and deflector only 3 times in almost 300 hours.

Perks are not limited on any kind of weapon. - So they CAN be usefull but dont have to.
In this case, the light attack (shooting) and special attack can hit weakspots.

The Blessings are designed to match the “design” of a weapon. The surge staff (palpatine named for reasons) is a lightning spread that CANT hit weakspot. → that is the design, so no weakspot related blessing.

If you want to checkout the range of blessings a weapon could get: visit darkmass.gg (there are some blessings and perks that doesnt exist actually)

It seems I’ve misspoken when I had said earlier that Surge staff “cannot hit weak spots,” regarding what I was told about the blessing (although it is still intended to not get the blessing). The weak spot damage perk is supposed to be excluded from the Purgatus staff, because it can’t hit weak spots at all, but as others have stated, the Surge staff does have some attacks that can benefit from the perk. I couldn’t say whether or not Surge is supposed to have the perk, but I’ve asked some folks to look into it.

Circling back to the Transfer Peril blessing, because only half of the force staves can have it, that would match your reported reproduction rate of about 50% or less, with bad luck also a potential factor. I’ll keep an eye out for further reports on this, but for the time being, I don’t think there’s a bug causing Transfer Peril to happen less often. More occurrences of Terrifying Barrage is likely due to random generation as well.
