Okay as our main skill, mod counter-attack is supposed to return damage, I really don't see it occuring because a mob could do a 2k hit and i'd counterattack but their health wouldn't go down any bit. Is it me? or does it not work at all?

It's just a renamed dodge. Except with dodge, you get this annoying sidestep animation that freaks you out if you are playing in first person mode.

Well they need to fix counter-attack to do what it's supposed to do. That would make us pretty strong especially with the tc changes coming soon. Ofcourse they need to worry about that after they fix our sad display of repetitive moves.

Yep, there is no Attack in Counter Attack... You are just countering the attack, iow dodging

I think it's working properly, but not often enough. I don't think it'ssupposed to let you get a free hit in, rather, youavoid taking any damage from the hit,and then your next attack is guaranteed not to be a miss.

However, this doesn't guarantee a damage causing hit,as they still have a chance toblock or evade your counterattack!

...I have seen thishappen,Ithink I was fighting nightsisters or something.Itwascool to see the back-and-forth in the combat logs, for a brief moment it waslike anactualfight between skilled melee combatants,not the usualtoe to toe slugfest.

We should see more of this, provided we getthe +100 counterattack andthe Center of being ability, like the test center has.
