Perhaps not a rifle specific question but has anyone had autoattack simply fail to work?

In my case I control-click the basic 'Ranged Shot', then fire the special. It fires ONCE, then never again, I see the icons on the tool bar cycling, going through the motions of firing for the subsequent shots, but I dont actually fire, and no messages show up in the log.

This happens with any attack I control-click on..shot fires once and never again. I can hit "esc' and abort and fire manually as normal.

Any advice? At this point Im going to make a macro instead because autoattack just isnt working for me.

This has happened to me once or twice; fortunately it doesn't happen often! I think it's either lag-related or load-related, as it has only happened for me when other weirdness such as disappearing missions or disappearing chat channels is going on.

Its driving me batty because it fails 100% of the time. In fact the only time I recall it working was during the open beta on TC hehe.

Im concerned about this mainly because I have what I consider to be an exceptional quality T21 rifle (524-998 min/max with my adjusted attack speed speed being only 1.54 (over 450 DPS!!), and has high chance to wound and an accuracy bonus.I dont want the speed of this weapon to get mitigated by me being slow to press the special.

As it stand now I have to be really vigilant and always have the next attack queued up, which adds up to a whole lot of button pushing (and a pain if you are trying to kite a creature, and already have the negatives on accuracy because you are firing while running) If I miss a beat then im there with the attack timers still counting down and Im taking damage but not dealing any.

Guess I will be using a firing macro till that gets worked out.

just recently I've noticed auto-attacks cutting out on me, somewhat sporadically. Occasionally after using any given special, the auto-attack just doesn't come back, other times (mostly) after any attack (auto or non) fails due to too little action left, once enough action has recharged, the auto-attack doesn't always come back. The last example seems to happen more often than not...I have to manually re-attack once I have enough action again, like the game just stops updating/trying to attack at all after it fails once.
