Thread: Exploit or not: Duel to break effects of concussion shot

Well on the subject of cheap moves the same could be said for the BH who invented the tactic, duel your mate and area attack to break cloak, duel your mate down to 10% health and use last ditch and so on. Using cheap tactics because the other side does doesnt make it right but people will always use the "he did it so i will" excuse.
what does that have to do with this thread? did he say anything about any of those situations? did this guy start duelling his buddy so that the jedi's startleshot would break? i guess i don't understand what you were getting at there.

I went after a jedi today and used concussion shot to keep them rooted and dazed. This was working nicely until one of his guildmates started to duel him while I was fighting him. His guildies attacks would break the effects of my concussion shot. They did this until I was dead. Is this a known exploit or is it "working as intended"? Thanks.
I find it funny that you aren't at all concerned about the fact that you obviously are continually spamming "concussion shot to keep them rooted and dazed" being an exploit, as it has been announced as an issue to be fixed, thus not working as intended. Exploit lies in the eyes of the beholder.
I thought concussion was supposed to do that.. didnt they FIX it to do that

The effect of the shot is working as intended. The ability to spam the shot faster than the daze wears off is not working as intended.
Freakin' SoE Fix the same move but mess it up in hte process? I didnt know that was possible

Jedi duelled friend breaking his concussion shot.
It's not any different than dueling to break stasis. We use that all the time... It will probably get fixed and until I see something from SOE that says not to, I'm going to continue to deal while in statis, to remove it.

Well, it works both ways bud. Jedi have this little ability called stasis which does the same thing as concussion shot. If you bring a partner with you duel him if the jedi uses this ability.

I didn't continually spam it. I'd use a high damage shot like critical first and then once they got close to me I'd use it. Back away about 40m or so then use a knockdown followed by critical shot and a snare. Rinse and repeat. I just picked up Master Smuggler/MBH and didn't know it could be spammed. Maybe I should.
Dang forums - I was in the right thread - sometimes this happens when I have multiple windows open

Offering rides - offering a ride to a jedi friend to get them away from a BH, spamming offer rides to BHs to distract, or using offer ride on special forces to get them away from hostiles.
This is not an exploit in my book, the BH can use a knockdown attack to get them out of the vehicle. I would however like to see that if a ride was offered that the vehicle becomes TEF'ed so that the person doing it would have some risk in the matter. It may not be exploiting but it is on the cheezy side of things.
People spamming rides is another matter entirely, first off this isn't thier fight so stay out of it, secondly it is harrasment pain and simple.
Load camping - sitting at load zone at a starport and hitting a hot target as soon as targetable.
Weaksauce, at least wait for them to move about before hitting them. Most people on Bria do wait, but some do not.
Mobile homes - dropping homes while grinding to always to have a safe house within 100m.
Exploit, I would like to see a timer added to houses where they cannot be declared private until they are 4 server hours old. This would end the "Bob the Builder" Jedi using them as mobile homes. The TEF change in Publish 20 should help this a little if a BH can get a long range shot off before the Jedi reaches the trailer park.
LOL, wrong thread.
