<DIV>Works for me all the time I would say either bug it or try relogging.  Granted if this has been over several days or weeks for you then I dont know why it would be messed up.  Dumb question but after you trigger the ability you are keeping a sword equipped?  If you are swapping it out then it will not keep that haste.</DIV>

Definitely using a sword. Went out at tested it solo and it's working fine. Guess I got to try it again in MT group and see if other buffs causing it not to stick. Joy.

I remember when I used to spec int I often had a problem with double-clicking acceleration strike during the more hectic fights. Basically first click used the ability, and 2nd click removed the buff. This might be what you're experiencing.

<DIV>Yes i am having the same problem. Cast the first buff (3 triggers) --> use 3 CAs = No Haste buff! The origanal just disapears and i get no haste, checked my persona many times to conferm.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Acc Strike is at app4 quality and i always use V. Sword of Sheilding. what is happening here?.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>It seems to do it mostly on raids with many buffs on U, it bugged out at 10 mins into MIS last night and i was never able to get it to come back.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Solo or Grouped it usually works tho.. Is it thinking i have too many buffs on a raid? therefore not sticking?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Deff needs to be /bugged as much as we can</DIV>

I use it in raids and groups and have never had it fail for me.  The personal buff window only shows so many buffs, not nearly as many as you can have on (which sucks.  Bad SoE), but you can watch your trigger counter on your maintained buffs window.  I use Fetish Nightfall and have my mini stats bar up which show stats and other things like +dps and +haste.  The haste bonus always shows up there, added on to whatever base haste I already have.Not only can you trigger this skill with 3 normal CAs, you can also trigger it with one CA - our one blue AE as mentioned elsewhere (if it has 3 targets to hit).  You can also trigger it with another single skill as well - our group taunt that also does damage, once again providing it as three targets to hit.My biggest problem with this skill is my own.  I refresh it too often to ensure it is up.  I waste a bit of mana and dps with some extra clicks I could have held off on.  That's my own problem, and it's not that big of one.  As far as I can see firsthand on my character, this skill is working exactly as intended.<div></div>

<P> </P> <P> There have been times when I did not see the yellow icon appear after triggering it, and I thought it might not be working.  However when I saw this, I popped up the character info screen (P) and was able to confirm that the haste increase was working even with the icon missing.</P> <P> </P> <P>  </P> <P> </P> <P> </P>

never had it fail either. if your good you can do it once a min(duration is a min) if you do it more(i think like most everyone else does heh) your wasting some mana, not much(i think it's 50power) but it's still a waste(i'm guilty of this as well).<div></div>

<DIV>I just thought of something charms used to mess up certain AAs.  Thought they tried to fix it not real sure but that could also be it.  I would suggest a quick camp to character select and back in as well.</DIV>
