Rogue bugs? --> Reckless Assault, Blinding and Crippling Attack, Backstab, double click issues

[overnuke]

Ok, so I'm having some problems with my rogue, not sure if they are actually bugs or if it's intentionally this way.

 

I also have the dobule click equip bug, so that may or may not influence the following issues.

 

 

1. Reckless Assault ability can't be turned off once you activate it. Since it's not passive or at least it doesnt say so, I'm pretty sure it's broken. Funny enough, the only way I managed to turn it off, is by using the double click bug already known, but that's not a good idea for future stats and unlocks etc.

 

2. Blinding and Crippling attack abilities don't get any bonus damage from Backstab talent when using a melee weapon (only tried with spear and sabre). It does work however with a crossbow. I'm not sure if this was intended or not.

 

 

Also regarding the double click bug, does this actually influence Backstab and Sneak attack for a rogue? As far as I can tell it works just fine (from what I see in combat chat and more damage also), except in the examples that I mentioned above.

 

When can we expect a new patch btw?

I've had a similar issue, I can combine a backstab with blinding strike, but not crippling strike.

 

Strange.

overnuke, could you attach a saved game that exhibits these issues as well as your output.log file? QA will need those.

 

Use dropbox for the saved game as the forum won't let you attach files that big.

Hello Spam101,

 

I just check your issue and I was able to get backstab with both of those abilties. To activate backstab, your character must be in stealth. Let me know if that is the case.

 

Thanks!

I think the issue was different. I couldn't couldn't get the backstab bonus on special attacks from shadowing beyond.

 

Seemed to come out of invisibility before the animation.

 

Not sure if this has been addressed in 3.0. I've yet to have a proper go at it

We currently have a bug with Shadowing Beyond at the moment not working correctly, but this will be fixed in the 3.0 patch.
