Hey guys,
I just got SL and was thinking Volley Fire would be best to get first. However I have heard it doesn't work. I was just wondering if I could get conformation on this one way or the other?

It does work, it's just not worth the trouble.
It fires 1 normal round from everyone's weapons at the designated target. Unfortunatley, it doesn't permanently switch the other player's targets to that target, and it doesn't fire any special attacks. With the current combat system, standard attacks are basically useless so /volleyFire winds up making the entire group do a fraction of the damage 1 person with a special attack could have done.
After the infamous "combat pass" is finished, maybe this will be more useful.
