last night i was killing some imps with my Blackscale Acid Launcher and when they were in close melee, i used Firearm Strike(basic, not advanced). suddenly, nearly all the Stormtroopers went down.
i then tried this with my PFT, and the same happened. tried it with my renegade pistol(non-AoE) and only the guy went down.
is this supposed to happen, or is it a bug? just to be sure, i sent it as a ticket, but i never get replies on my tickets...

I thought all Commandos could do this as an inherent ability? Shouldn't Commandos be better at bashing stuff than regular profs?
In answer to your question the AOE of AOE weapons applies to all attack specials (beside AOE specials ironically) including Firearm Strike. What I am unsure of is if bleeds (Torso Shot) do so as well. I don't think they do.

I don't think it is a bug. Firearm strike is a ranged attack. I use it all the time with the cone and radius weapons, and I love it.
Firearm Strike + Commando = everyone around you falls flat on their ass.
HOT!!

Whether or not its a bug, I like it. I've used it on occasion with a flamer, and found the results quite satisfying. Its a product of the innate AoE from our weapons, nothing more. I would suggest keeping this one under wraps!
