Craven Walk is, you guessed it, broken

[Azr]

<DIV>My lovly FD move is now just a sneak. I can only assume this was not intentional.</DIV><p>Message Edited by Azrom on <span class=date_text>01-06-2005</span> <span class=time_text>03:04 PM</span>

<DIV>hmm, didnt use it yesterday, did they mess up the FD?</DIV>

[Sinadi]

I think it was broken before. I don't believe it was ever intended for us to be able to feign death pretty much at will. You were able to use this move while actively getting hit by a mob and you'd feign just like a monk. :pI haven't had the chance to test if it works from stealth as it's supposed to. Too bad I just had Lurk adept 1 drop for me last night. Oh well ;/

[Azr]

<DIV>Doesn't FD anymore under any cercumstance.</DIV>

[Gy]

<DIV>if this is true this is GREAT news, 1st off FD never worked on mobs that ever saw threw my invis anyway they just beat on me harder because my defenses were down. This is better because now because I dont have to die while I try and right click cancel the effect so I can get off my evac. Granted it does not let you evade death in normal fights like it could but I NEVER needed it for that. I always can sprint away, zone, or evac.</DIV>

[Aery]

<DIV>Speak for yourself Gyan, it used to work very well for me. Now the FD component is completely broken and its a worthless stealth. Please everyone bug this</DIV>

[Azr]

<DIV>Not really sure what your doing wrong Gyan but CW has saved my butt soo many times since I got it against a variety of different level mobs. Not like they aren't gonna fix it though. Heh time will tell.</DIV><p>Message Edited by Azrom on <span class=date_text>01-08-2005</span> <span class=time_text>04:46 PM</span>

<DIV>Im very happy they removed the FD from it when using it "properly" it got me killed a few times because of the time wasted cancelling the FD icon.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Yeah its  a shame to lose the FD bit for being a jerk and messing about but. i can live with that</DIV>

<DIV>Craven Walk is THE Brigand skill.</DIV> <DIV>I thought everyone should upgrade to adept3. No doubt.</DIV> <DIV>But now... Brigand is Swashbuckler without mez.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I report on this bug every day. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Raffine - 40 Brigand</DIV> <DIV>Butcherblock</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>/mourn another useful skill</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>It's not FD'ing at all, in combat, out of combat, anywhere.  I really hope this was unintentional and not a "let's just break the skill entirely til we get it working the way we want it to in a couple months" fix.  I had enough of that kind of crap playing SWG.  I suppose we should be greatful that the sneak part of it still works.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>By the way, a sit/stand key works much faster than trying to right-click and cancel FD, whether its for Ruse or Craven Walk.  Typing /stand does not work oddly enough, but if you have a key assigned to the action (I believe the default is X or Z) it works great.</DIV>

[Sinadi]

Yeah, I had a chance to test Lurk and it's totally broken. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> I'm very sad as the ability to FD at least from a sneak made up somewhat for the fact that our stuns...aren't.I had a lot of success with FD, maybe you shoulda taken some time from levelling to go upgrade your skills Gyan. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

<DIV>Yupp, I am Brigand on Valor, level 45 atm...</DIV> <DIV>Craven Walk + Lurk (got both on adept3) used to be the best skills...and now they screwed up.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Also, did someone ever use the "Waylay" skill?  (level 43.6)</DIV> <DIV>Its supposed to stun + DoT the mobs...but insteat it stuns+dots me... rofl</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>-Deewee, 45th Brigand, Valor Server</DIV>

[Rykilth]

<DIV>There was a patch today (Jan 11) although there was no mention about these skills in particular, can anybody check to see if they are working like they should be ?</DIV>

[xarion_silentha]

<DIV>no they are still broken</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

[Ar]

<DIV>I'd like to add my name to the broken list. =D</DIV> <DIV>Got 31 a couple days ago truely looking forward to this skill, as it sounds very cool, unfortunatley every time i've been dmg'ed *poof* *smack baff* *DEAD* ------> Respawn</DIV> <DIV>I talked to another brigand though and she said that she had no probs. But I have no idea since when she last used it. (seeing that some of you said it HAD worked)</DIV> <DIV>I do hope this problem is resolved as it is a cool ability.... or rather sounds like it would be. =D</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Arik    31 Brigand   Oasis Server</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

[Efour EQ2]

<DIV>just for the record we are talking about the FD from stealth if spotted by an enemy NPC?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>that has been messed about with by players to simulate.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1) ghetto FD/detaunt in combat</DIV> <DIV>2) fun spell to spam when bored </DIV> <DIV>3) suicide spell at Adept 1 where you can get 3 mobs on you and fd but only 1 will give up, thus wasting alot of time and may aswell have just sprinted in the first place.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>i think all  Scouts stealth skills gets replaced at 3p70g when you buy a middle speed horse.</DIV>

[Azr]

<DIV>So it is now almost a month since the big patch and craven walk is still not working. Have the devs even ackowledged this? Is this gonna be like our bow shot and dome day get fixed or are we out of one of our skills for good?</DIV><p>Message Edited by Azrom on <span class=date_text>01-26-2005</span> <span class=time_text>06:53 AM</span>

It would be nice to either have Craven Walk fixed, or the description updated to match the new 'functionality'

[Korelen]

I doubt this is a high priority for the Development team, so I doubt we will see a correction for this anytime soon.

[Gy]

<DIV>if they put it back I hope they dont make it rearded like it was. I want to be able to break my spell onpurposed without rightn click and select cancel. It should only work when seen and moving shoudl stand you up. It should not work if I sprint or start attacking. That becomes way more annoying then it is useful.</DIV>

[Azr]

<DIV>I dealt with this by keeping sit/stand between ruse and craven walk on my hot key bar. Not the best solution but much faster then cancleing the effect.</DIV>

[Kegofbud]

<DIV>Just got it last night and upgraded it to Adept 1. I'm happy just to have a sneak that lasts and can get by Reds easier then Burgle did. Snoop was just way too weak to use anywhere anymore. </DIV>

[Gyilok]

<DIV>i just wish they gave us some kind of fd move, would perfectly fit the brigand style, with craven walk yea it was pretty lame to always right click to cancel, but taking away the fd effect was not the best solution</DIV>
