Well, i decided last week to Drop CH, and pick up another combat profession so i could grind FS xp a littler better. I decided on pike since i Hate TK, and to many fencers around, and it just looks fun. But anyway...


I have been taking huurton stalker missions in a solo group, and spamming polearmspinattack1. Now Huurton stalkers have Dizzy and stun specials, which is fine with me, cause i am not changing my posture. For some reason i keep getting KDed, with no mobs around me that have that special, and due to having 5-10 stalkers on me, i am almost constantly dizzy.


does spin 1 cause a posture change, or am i on to something here

I don't think it's a bug, there's always a bit of a chance to fall down when you're dizzy from my experience. And with pike's low KD Defense you're probably just having bad luck.

yeah, Im pretty sure you cant fall down from just being dizzy. You must somehow be changing your posture.

ive never have been kd'd by stalkers, and i used spin attack 1 alot grinding pikeman. if you are dizzy and you stand up (accidently hit f1 or whatever) then you will get kd'd, so you might accidently do that some times.

well, i feel like a moron, but i figured it out.


when i made my macro, I was occasionly getting attacked by pikets that i would hit with my aoe, and they have posture change.


I added a /stand part just incase i was away, and they got me. I didn't know that /stand while standing was considered a posture change... stupid game
