Posted by Tiggs in the Patch Thread...
IF you were feigning you could never be incapped. Now you can =)
Um...that's still a little vague.
- Can you be DBed now while feigning and incapped?
- Can someone triple incap you while feigned and die from it?
A little more detail than that wouldn't hurt. Starting to feel like I am fighting to get info like I would a politician.

So according to one player on TC, you CAN be Incapped. You CAN'T be deathblowed.
SO this begs the question, to what end?
PvE-FD was made for this. But as it is, the MOBs do NOT break off their attack. They will wander as far as 2k away and will come back and attack you when you get up. Now they can Incap you, wait for you to fall down, and do it again when you get back up. Do it one more time and you've negated the purpose of Feigning Death, which is NOT DYING.

Sorry guys, dissapeared for a phone call and some food. I got the same response from Tiggs as in her post, hoping she can give me something more.... Until then I guess I'll just keep my eyes peeled.

Please read over his post again, he says that he tested that last night. The patch wasn't til this morning. His test results were on the old system.

It doesn't matter if it's been tested or NOT. The point is the same.
If I get incapped by a MOB while Feigning, and I get up, that MOB will chase me down, even 2km away or further. It will incap me again. It does it one more time, I'm dead, which defeats the TRUE purpose of Feign Death, avoiding dying in PvE.

I place the blame for this smuggler nerf on the shoulders of the jedi. The only time that changes happen is when it somehow affects the jedi.

MojoRein, did you tested in PvE also? To see what happen ?
1- Do being incapped while Feigned really break aggro? (meaning, no more aggroing back from 2km away)
and more importantly...
2- Do DBing mobs who incapped you while feigned DB you too? or are they foolwed by the fd and leave you incap?
If you haven't tested that I will go do it after dinner, but since you said you did tests... I thought I would ask
