Thread: Is something wrong with Polearm Sweep 2?

For some reason when I use this move it tells me I did not change my opponents posture...most of the time I guess its because I am also attacking the lair. The thing that gets me is when I use sweep 2 nothing will be knocked down, then I spam spin attack 2, after 5 seconds from when I used sweep 2 something falls and is knocked down. So is there sometimes a delay when you use Sweep 2 because it doesn't seem to knock things down right away all the time.


The thing I do love about it is whenit doesknock 3 quenkers or pikets down all at once. Its such a beautiful sight to see everything around you KDed while you spam spin attack 2, hehe.

I was out on Yavin last night breaking in some new guild members, I had no problems what so ever with Sweep2. At times I was able to KD 7+ Kilkniks at a time. The new guys would get overzelous and at novice swordsman attack the lair bringing actives and the spawns down on em, saved their asses more than once with sweep2.



You could be looking at lag, or your acc mod is still a little low. Also depends on the game you are hunting. When in doubt try to stun em before landing the sweep. That applies to the failed to change posture spam, but seeing as how you are hunting on dant. things like that are expected in Lowca at least. Dant has some serious stability problems for some reason for us. Might be the same on your server, I would expect the sheer number of mission forced spawns have something to do with it.

It could be lag, sometimes that happens to me...but no nothing is wrong with it, and you get that message when you hit anything and fail to knock it down, wether it be a lair, or an Mob...

In PvP this happens a lot, u have to wait to see the message before sticking another in the queue so I notice the delay between when the move executes and when I see the message, typically i end up doing another attack in between.


the question i have is whether sweep 1 and 2 both have the same chance to effect the target? I use sweep 2 cause my bar space is tight and ocassionally i need the area sweet, but if 1 is more effective then i will just use that.
