Upon getting controll back, I hit FD again. The same thing happened.
Upon regaining controll of my character I ran. When it was apparant that I was not going to be able to get away, I hit FD a third time. Again the same thing happened, this time he incapped me and deathblowed me.
What I want to know is this, Is this the result of some new ability, like a fear attack? Or not?
I would like to make it clear that I have been informed as of about a half hour ago that the FD system has been changed. This was not a case of being incapacitated 3 times while feigning death.
I would also like to make it clear that I understood that I would be facing BHs when I chose to grind upusing Storm Troopers. I do not have any issues with Bounty Hunters who fight and play fair, in fact I applaud skilled Bounty Hunters.

Kind of sounds like they used warcry on you. that or they used the duel bug on ya. If neither of those then i'd have to say you just lagged out. Goodluck finding your answer... Oh and next time just fight them................or RUN LIKE YOU GOT A PAIR......one or the other will suffice.

That's what's really bothering me the most about this whole FD issue. Not only did they take away our onlt defence against the stacker majority, but they hurt the non Jedi populace doing so, and that is just exeedingly poor sportsmanship on the part of the DEVs.
And congratulations on dying like a man. However, not being a man, I am not restricted to such cliches! *wink*

Guess you haven't heard that doing that crap nerfed Smugglers, so now you can't take advantage of it. Oh, and btw, thanks for doing the sensible thing Devs by nerfing the skill.... god forbid the devs fix something by doing something other than nerf it.

beingattacked while feigned shouldnt cause you to stand.
anyway i no longer know the definition of the word, "exploit." it has long evolved to a point i cannot even recognize it. what i can say is thatanything you dont agree with seems to be what people use to classify an exploit nowadays.

Just a warning or maybe just paranoid.
Fought several BH this week I was not able to hit when I KD them. I would run up to them to either Power hit. or even to incap them, but every time I run up on them I get a message with 'target is to far' and their corpse warp up to 10m to 30m. Again, this happens everytime I'd KD them and wanne either incap or DB them(and no it was not lag)Some of my guildies gavean input the BH's may have been using some form of /unstick command as they get KD or incapt warp.
If they are using some form of warp command, my recommendation if you'r a Mdef is bore him out by not doing any special attack except maybe KD( KD recovery burns up 20% action to my knowledge), but use valor and/or aura. If your MLS with atleast 600dps LS throw and incap him 3x.
I dont do hardly PvP as Im mostly PvE jedi so my knowledge in PvP is limited.I hope some of you uber PvPer's can clear up this question.
thx.

Yeah, happens to me a lot when they're on hills and they're runners. I always thought it was lag, though.

Lag Im affraid. One way to beat it is to have a key bind to /follow . Your hits will land nearly all the time if the player is on follow.

lag ... on your screen they are down on the ground. On thier screen they have not fallen yet and can still run ( albiet in one direction only ) until their client catches up with the server stream and they fall down. You see this as a toon sliding on its back. I have seen then slide up hills, around houses, into and out of buildings ... etc etc.
Just plain lag. Been happening since the begining of SWG time.
