America's Angel Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) I don't think the Scrapper ATOs are boosting Concentrated Strike (kinetic melee) crit rate properly. I just tested it 50 times in a row: Step 1: Triggered critical strike window with smashing blow Step 2: Fired Concentrated Strike Result: Power Siphon would insta-recharge 28% of the time. (It should be doing it 73% of the time.) Edited April 22, 2021 by America's Angel Join the Homecoming PvP Fightclub Discord What is Fightclub?

UberGuy Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 According to CoD The effect that recharges Power Siphon has no tags, so nothing will modify its chance. Given that it's a relatively unique effect with an unusually high base chance (20% is higher than regular critical hit base chances get), this may be intentional.

Yeah I wasn't sure if it was intentional or not, especially given Gaussian is a thing that exists. Join the Homecoming PvP Fightclub Discord What is Fightclub?

America's Angel Posted April 22, 2021 Author Share Posted April 22, 2021 Update from Powerhouse: This is working as intended until the powerset gets a performance pass.

Myrmidon Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Angel, be aware that every mention of Kinetic Melee needing a look resets the powerset review clock. 1 Playing CoX is it’s own reward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
