I didn't see an official bugs thread in here so I thought I'd start one. If there is one, please post a link so I can copy and paste these. Otherwise let this serve as a place to post any bugs you find while testing the CU on TC-EP3.



  • Panic Shot: No delay in PVP or (as near as I can tell PVE), person can fire immediately after they are hit with panic.

  • Last Ditch: Does not do nearly enough damage and pretty much insta incaps you. I did Last Ditch at full health with a plasma flame thrower and it did 700 damage to a mob (master commando, master pistoleer, smuggler 4xxx). The mob killed me instantly. I tried it again in pvp with a renegade pistol while at about 10% health and it did about 500 damage before armor mitigation. This seems broken. If we are gonna get instantly incapped by it, it needs to do some serious damage. Certainly it should do at least as much damage as we take from using it. In the case of the mob I took like 3600 points of damage from firing it and I did 700.

  • Feign Death doesn't work.

I think for Last Ditch the damage is supposed to be better when you are lower on health.

It is. Back when you could use all abilities, Last Ditch would do some monstrous damage if you used it when you were near death. It may well have been changed as to how effective it is, but it pretty much looks like it's only supposed to be used, well, as a last ditch. Given the number of damage-dealing smuggler specials, I liked what I saw pretty well.

But is it doing the damage output it should now on TC?

That is confirmed.


as of now, last ditch is exactly its name sake, a last ditch effort to win. If you use it at the start of a fight its not very effective at all.


The closer you are to death, the more damage it does! I did 2100 Damage to someone 15 Levels higher than me yesterday. it didn't kill'em, but it came damn close.

I used Last Ditch, like I said in my post above, when I was at 10% health. I am not sure what you mean by close to death, but to me that is as close as I ever want to get. I have tried it several times at varying health levels and never got more than 700 damage out of it. I think it's either not working or was fixed in this recent patch. I will test it again.
