I get a posture down every once in a great while... Its supposed to be AoE/Cone, but it seems to be Not "Hit Every Target" but "Hit random target in cone." I'll have to re-read the FAQ to be sure if it is supposed to be like this. FAA1 seems to hit everything in the cone, though.



Do you think that it could still be working and that "failure to change posture" message is just a bug? I'll test it out and read the faq, just thought you may have seen that before.



I've been playing a carbineer for the last month and I believe this to be the case, but not always. there are many times when I get the message that it didnt work, but the animal will still stop charging like it got hit with the posture change. Other times there will be no message like it worked but the crit will still be charging.

It works fine for me, the first time it will usually posture down the target.. whether I'm shooting at a NPC, or a creature. The reason you see that message over and over, is because theres a timer in the combat system that keeps people from spamming knockdown, and posture changing shots over and over. So, it fails to change their posture with every shot until the timer has run out.
