I've been using +15 or more total speed, evassion and counterattack on my armor ever since they added sockets to it.

Now, speed I think i notice a difference, But evasion and counterattack, while appearing on my skill sheet as 0/+15 don't seem to work...I have NEVER executed a counterattack against an opponent while using my pike...anyone have backup for this? Is there a list of working/broken tapes somewhere?

Thanks.

Well it's been my experience that I dodge or block (I thought maybe my blocks were counterattack) but I have a 0 mod for CA and I don't remember my block mod. My theory is that block actually affects counterattack and the counterattack skill is for TKs maybe? Don't know would have to see others' experiences with skill mods.

its been proven that although dodge stacks between pistoleer and fencer, counterattack stacks between carbineer and swordsman, and block stacks between rifleman and pikeman, they are not cross compatible in any other way

if you have a carbine (any carbine, doesnt matter if you dont even have novice marksman) equiped, you will use whatever your counterattack mod is

if you have a two handed sword, it will use whatever your counterattack mod is

but if you have a polearm equiped, it will only use block (out of the three listed above)

we have no idea how defense acuity for TKAs is supposed to work, as it is currently broken (they will fix it and make TKAs even more godly...)

Thanks Leo for letting me know that that at least has been confirmed...but these are "polarm counterattack" and "polarm evasion"...I have generic block/dodge/counterattack tape and segs and they are different skills than these, according to my skill sheet...so would i get a bonus to counterattack from my "polearm counterattack" if I equipped a carbine?

It doesn't seem likely.

I'm still trying to find out if anyone has a link to a masterlist of usable/unusable tape, like the addt'l pets tape, a relic of beta, which still dropped for while but never worked...are these tapes the same thing?

Thanks,

Iaka

do pikemen get couter attack? IF not, i don't think you can add + skills to something that you aren't supposed to have.
