August 12, 20196 yr This must have been changed in the newest patch. I can no longer attack from smoke veil to trigger backstab and assassinate. GG that pretty much ruins the assassin which sucked to start with but this used to be a fun tactic at least. The veil lasts for 6 seconds with my INT but the character now refuses to attack from it. He just stands there for all 6 seconds.

August 12, 20196 yr Just tested with a savegame: No problem. Smoke Veil has a rather long recovery time, so it's normal that you can't do stuff in the first few seconds after using it. But then I could backstab/assassinate just fine. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods

It may be that (if your teammates are too far away or you are solo) the encounter resets while you are veiled, taking invisibility away in the midst of duratuion and thus breaking backstabbing and assassinate right before you want to hit. Or it was just a hickup. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
August 31, 20196 yr Author yup you're right. The encounter is resetting and combat is trying to end. It is inconsistent.
