Corner.. Bugged?

[Kilgann]

I have a feeling that there is a bug with the "Corner" attack we have and wanted to get a consensus from fellor Rangers:Havne't checked in group play but I think it's the same there, but this is whats happening:I initiate a Heroic Opp (Lucky Break) and start the chain off using Dirty Tricks. As soon as I hit Dirty Tricks my Corner attack behaves as if I had just used it as well, but without actually performing the attack.As soon as I hit Dirty Tricks both it and my Corner drop and begin to recharge. The corner attack never actually takes place, but it becomes unusable until it is recharged. Is seems as if it is tied into Dirty Tricks, but only when initaiting the HO (I think, will be checking if it happens using other starter keys as well). If anyone has noticed this please reply, if you haven't please watch for it next time you play. For a while I assumed I had been hitting Corner, but Im sure now that that wasnt the case, it is recharging without me even touching it =(

Just realized that Corner seems to be an updated version of Dirty Tricks.. maybe this is why.. although my updated Strikes still function independantly...hmmedit : actually just checked again =) and Im not sure if it is an updated version of the attack.. Corner falls under Archery and Dirty Tricks is Recon. So Corner would recieve no benefit from our Recon buff, is it still considered a better version of the attack or are they still seperated?<p>Message Edited by Kilgannon on <span class=date_text>12-11-2004</span> <span class=time_text>09:05 AM</span>

<DIV>Corner is an upgrade to dirty tricks -- dirty tricks is a predator skill (or is it SCOUT? wow).  The reason you see the disparity in the skill the attack is based on is a common thread through this forum -- most of our attacks after level 20 are ranged attacks (even the melee ones) and based on the Archery skill.  This is sort of one way we differentiate ourselves from the other class.  So you'll see a lot of thigns being ranged attacks (shadowlunge, etc) that use short range weapons.  Also, upgrades to older skills (ie, things on the same timer and received 14 levels later ) are going to become archery skill based because of our nature.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>hope that clears it up for ya <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV>

ditch dirty tricks as soon as you get corner... the debuff is amazing.. Hunting in Varsoon, I couldn't hit the level 34 mobs at level 27 because of the melee nerf, however after just one corner, I was landing every blow. Its a great defense debuff, and when mixed with lunging strike, you hit alot harder.
