Jigglypoo997,

Don't think of it as a bug.. but as.. compensation.

Shazeen,

I would like to think that it isn't a bug but the more thought I give it the more I think it is. Supression fire doesn't work for me yet Action Shot works just fine. Carbines are about Knockdowns and other stuns but I cannot say if it's suppose to be on this skill. No where does it mention that it changes posture on the description. I think Action Shot is just suppose to be another DOT move. Just like Health Shot and Mind shot but the posture changing effect was added onto it somehow. Realistically, I can see a foot shot doing something like that. But what about things such as Mind Shots realistically. I think that they are all suppose to do the same effect, for gameplay balance. And that's by just being a DOT move.

Stregone,

When you target a creature, you can see an icon to the right of it's name/HAM bars. If you fire, and land, a single action shot you will see the picture change from the standing picture to the kneeling picture. It does this for me everytime to every creature (even Krayts). The knockdown icon is a prone icon but flipped and higher up on the icon box. Much like a knockdown, making the creature kneel completely stops it in it's tracks. However, when it's kneeling it can still attack creatures within it's range while on the other hand, knocking down a creature renders it completely useless in attacking anything.

but is action shot 2 supposed to be area of effect? it makes it a lot ahrder to pick out one target and kill its action bar
