Well to feign this skill is useless, 1. You have to stop running and I have some bug where I seem to always be running even if im already stopped i still get the message " You cannot perform Feign Death While Running" 2. It counts down , by the time I performed it Im already incapped. 3. You have to be in Combat.


Well for me it sucks But i need it to get me closer to low blow

This feign Death is anything except worthless. Its not EQs uber FD but it works great has saved me many times.


It works on any mobs and or players.


It works almost all the time, if you were runningit can be apain but I have found that the more FD skill I have the less problem it seems to be.By skill I mean the points that are given as you go up the dirty fighting tree.


You take a big hit when it goes off but you heal when FDed so if your patient you can wait tell you are fully healed and then get up and continue fighting.

Feign Death is, to me, probably THE must-have skill. It's gotten me out of so many jams, I've lost count. Yeah, it won't work if you're running, but if you go prone, you can get around that problem really easy.

Just as an example. The other day I was helping some people kill the big dragons on Tatooine when the mob dragon started killing everyone in sight. Well i hit FD the dragon one shot took all my bars down to 0 but becuase I had FDed I just waited tell it healed up and kept fighting where as the rest of the groups had the long run back from Mos Teika.

Yeah it works wonders with the bleed shots...especially when you have healthshot 1 and 2 cause they stack.

Nah...I doubt it....it's not like you can fire healthshot 2.... 5 times and it bleeds 5 times over. It is two spereate attacks. I bleed around 300 something for Healthshot 2 and 100 somethign for Healthshot 1.

hahaah that's my Macro too... just make sure you wait for the bleeds to stop before you get up. Then lay it on them again. If you have the time, you can solo anything with this.

Hey can anyone tell me the point of Feign Death?Does it ever erase aggro on mobs or is it to just get them to stop attacking you for a little bit?For me at the first level of it it is only used to keep a mob off of you for a little bit because the mobs reaggro as soon as I stand.Any advice would be appreciated.

In it's current incarnation FD sucks, it used to erase you off a MOBs aggro list so it was HIGHLY usefull in PvE.
