yes, its delay ont he potsure change, so best to use it after a Knockdown if you have one, otherwise it just semi-decent damage

trying to use startle today since this patch22 debacle...

hits... icon appears under targets ham bar.. 5 sec delay timer is there...

but.

does it delay their attacks? does it heck! also the post attack 'anger' effect is missing... which leads me to believe its not working.

20:43:50 you hit bol with improved startleshot
20:43:52 bol hits you...
20:43:54 bol hits you...

that aint right :/

edit: seems it only delays posture change... has that always been the case?? im sure pre 22 i was able to use it to give myself a 5sec breathing space.

i screwed up.... 5 sec mez is on the advanced... i thought the improved was same just less damage... its actually just a 5sec delay on posture change for improved.

not even sure if a KD recover counts as a posture change. doesnt delay animals after you KD them. well.. doesnt seem to work on Bols. Ill try on some NPC's later.

I use it with my Rocket Launcher all the time.Hit creature or NPC (or player) with a RL blast using the Advanced Startle Shot and target stays down, unable to get up for at least 5 seconds. So,I thinkKD recover is a posture change.

yer adv startle has a 5 sec mez... improved has a 5 sec posture change halt. your target is staying down cos of the mez on the advanced version.
