Ok lol, so feign death is now meant to help your oppenent by incapping yourself for your enemy so that they dont have to at which point you lay on the ground helplessly until you receive a deathblow LOL! what a load.

Um. This is a "Bad Thing".

First, how exactly does this work now?

Second, what freakin' use is FD at all now?

*Rant warning*

Someone please explain before I have to get all down and depressed over yet another freakin' nerf to a profession that has seen nothing but freakin' nerfs (except for some minor positive changes hardly worth mentioning) and who's main function (Smuggling) doesn't exist and most of who's combat moves are freakin' useless?

EDIT: Ok, rant over, let's examine the post again. This doesn't tell us any more than the original patch note. Does this mean that when someone uses FD they appear incapped so they can no longer be attacked, or is it actually the nerf I maybe mistakenly assumed in my rant?

So there is no purpose to Feign Death now? The purpose of Feign Death was so you couldn't be incapped. I fail to see the logic in the change.

She's right, you can be incapped, but you CAN'T be deathblowed. So feight death still works. The incap really makes no difference, even when it happens three times.

I would'nt be worried about this until you tried it out.






well, if it's as this person says, it's not so bad now is it?

This is effectively dropping a Knock Down on yourself.


Like others have said, the skill is useless in PvE and now PvP. Half of our only combat line is worthless. I'm so tired of biting the bullet for other professions' problems without us receiving compensation.


This is an outrage. You revamp Chefs and overhaul Doctor buffs which kill Spices and nothing is done about it. This seems to be the same change. Kill our good stuff to appease others without giving us a single thing in return.


"Wait for the Smuggler revamp" is not an excuse either. That's been put on us for 2 years and if you want quotes out the ass, I'll gladly link them. This is intollerable.

Todays patch added the new FD change so anything last night "tested" matters little

Wait, let's examine the post again. This doesn't tell us any more than the original patch note. Does this mean that when someone uses FD they appear incapped so they can no longer be attacked, or is it actually the nerf I maybe mistakenly assumed in my rant?

A little more detail on how this works, please Tiggs!

Then I have to be curious as to the point of having us go incapacitated in the first place.
