Is Feign working? I have yet to get it to work, I get the "failed to fiegn death" message, fall flat on my back, and keep taking hits. Granted I am only Smuggler 0010 just for that, I'm a Jedi I admit it

. But have been testing this alot in PvE with ZERO success

I was dueling a guildie other night, I accidently hit FD and hit the ground flat out, they came running over asking what did that to me(Prob excited they had a special that kicked butt), when i popped up and whacked them............

Haven't tried it since, guess I should to see if that was just a fluke.

Feign has not been nerfed or broken, rather, the skill now as a less likely chance to succeed if you've templated yourself just for that skill, compared to someone who's actually investing more than the bare minimum of skill points into Smuggler.

I am a Master Smuggler and am having the same problem. I get about 1 out of 4 or 5 Feign Death attempts to come back successful.

I'm a Master Smuggler, Master Pistoleer, BH 0004 and have seen the same problem with Feign Death. I have tried to use it over 30 times since the CU and have only had success at most 30% of the time.

Is this the way it is supposed to work?

I fail FD about half the time as a MS.

I know there's a chance at failing, which I'm not upset about, but I'm trying to figure out if there's anything that will contribute to chance of failure or if it's just a straight die roll.

"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

No. It's busted and will never work again. Shame. Oh well. All it does is gets you killed. Here's the proof:

4-4-3-2 Smuggler here. FD seems to work fine for me...I'd say I am successful at least 75% of the time. As I understood it, this is not supposed to work 100% of the time. On the other hand, the players being successful only 25% of the time are either bugged or just unlucky.

BTW...I am going to finish EARNING Master Smuggler this week instead of simply ReSpec-ing. I was 4-3-3-1before the CU patch. It may be a trivial thing, but I am going to finish grinding what I started...even if the type of XP required haschanged. I figure it is the least I can do to stay true to my chosen profession Just wish I'd had enough online timein the past month or soto get Master before CU hit, but RL issues/obligations had severley cut into my gaming time

Well that says a lot doesn't it. Though it'sa shame it'snot working for you, I really feel for you. Hang on, Jedi gave us our first nerf to Feign Death. Go to XP debt hell.

Oh that's being nice about it

Accamim your right. That stupid ability is just on my toolbar to tease me to screw up a good fight. Oh well I read the post and seriously agree with it.
