Venjirai Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 The skill "opportune attack" which gives the next focus spender 10% more damage does not work. The proc itself disappears when using an attack like blade storm or blade rush, but the damage is the same without the proc, instead of 10% more damage. Please report this via ingame support so they fix this soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you absolutely certain? because whenever it's up, i ALWAYS make sure to use blade storm or our execute, and that buff is the only difference for me between a 2.2k crit and a 2.5k crit. At least, that what my log is telling me. /shrug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least, that what my log is telling me. /shrug. I tested it for about 10 mins with Blade Rush, Blade Storm, Crippling Throw, the damage is the same. What you might be experiencing is min-max damage. I crit between 3 - 3.5k with Blade Storm without Precision Slash and the Proc does not change a thing.

Elear Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Sadly, it's true. My Blade Storm has toolip damage 1750-1814. On dummy with 5% armor it hits on average for 1696, that's 1785 before mitigation. 1925 is lower end of Blade Storm on steroids(with Opportune Attacks active), so lowest possible damage on that target should be 1828 if everything was working. Since I didn't see any hit close to that, or any real difference between hits with buff and without, I guess Opportune Attacks really doesn't work.

Sixthy Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) Tested for a while tonight, definitely isn't working. The buff is taken away after your next focus spender, but the damage isn't increased by 10%. Edited July 3, 2012 by Sixthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venjirai Posted July 4, 2012 Author Share Posted July 4, 2012 This thread needs dev attention. I submitted a ticket a while back, but no answer. Even with the devs acknowledging this bug, we probably have to wait for 1.4 for a fix. Bioware never seemed to care much about problems only certain specs are having issues with.

Kerbs Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I have tested this myself as well and definitely not working as from 5th of July. I have submitted a ticket as well outlining the issue and explaining how I tested, hopefully a resolution shouldn't be to far away. I wonder if the Marauder ability is working fine.

Venjirai Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Just bumping this since there's now dev response or anything. Checked it again today, still not working It has now been listed as a known bug: The Sentinel skill "Opportune Strike" and Marauder skill "Execute" do not currently apply the correct damage bonus. So now I have some hope for a fix in the next patches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LagunaD Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 (edited) Great, I spent an hour testing this... (and indeed, it is bugged). Ironically, the "Known Issue" description is, itself, in error, as there is nothing wrong with the abilities Opportune Strike or Execute (which are the ones which require the target to be slowed or immobilized). The problem is with the skill (not ability) "Opportune Attack". Now hopefully they will also fix the bug that Saber Storm doesn't increase Ataru critical damage.

Sixthy Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 The latest patch fixed it - verified in game. Precision Slash not eating the buff is amazing as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
