It did seem to me that CoB wouldn't work if you got hit during its timer. It was also difficult to see the icon soon enough after the timer "went off" to know if you had to try again. All the while chasing the mob you were supposed to be tanking but you can't anymore because your DPS now sucks. But after everyone's run away, my CoB worked, I think.

most likely. Which's probably what I'll do. Powerboost is actually worth having in the post-CU world, I love it.





well i did one today as if you dont leave enought pause the powerboost fails to stick

/pause 2;


/Meditate;


/pause 5;


/Powerboost;


Seems to work perfectly everytime and even if your allready boosted it doesnt give off any error messages

Ah, cool, thanks. I'll probably set it up without the key...as /pb or whatever. I need another slot on my toolbar for bactaspray anyway, want to be able to heal my teammates.

Small problem here.
If you Powerboost while you are already powerboosted it seems to trigger the cooldown timer, but not give you a fresh powerboost. You can easilly find your boost drop and not be able to reapply.

I've found that cob will stick before combat starts if I am at a complete stop. Stand there, call it, then wait till the icon appears before moving. This seems to work the majority of time.

Rather than select a hit for my automatic 'auto-attack' action, I have CoB checked off. If I'm fighting, it's always up now. I can comcentrate on hitting the silly thing rather than bouncing back and forth between offense/defense and healing myself and group

I'm surprised (happily) that having CoB on autofire would work.

I'd think that if you happened to move while it was autofiring, it would fail. Not too bad because you can just stop moving when it tries again.

More importantly, won't it keep trying to fire when the cooldown is done rather than when the effect has vanished? That would result in a reapplication of the cooldown without a reapplication of the buff. Potentially leaving you with a dropped buff and a full cooldown to wait before you can attempt it.

Unless of course they fixed CoB so that doesn't happen anymore. *crosses fingers*

Still a few days before I can log in and see for myself. *sigh*

Power Boost

Yes something seems to have changed, yes we don't know what yet. Please quit with new threads on this topic & just keep an eye here for any news on it.

Update: The skill is now working on TC so hopfully will be on live later today. It continues to suply a 10min +500 Health Buff.


Meditate

If you are finding you can't meditate, make sure you are first in the siting possition.






Power boost is working but it seems to be terrain dependent. If I sit and meditate and fail a power boost, I will keep failing that powerboost no matter how many times I try it.


However, if stand up, move about 3 meters then sit again and meditate,I will be able to powerboost on the first try. If not, no amount of repeating the attempt will work.


The area I was in was not hilly, but it was not smooth either. I suspect that the game may be doing a terrain check to see if you are meditating on flat group before it will allow a successful power boost. The only problem is that it seems that what is considered 'flat' may be a bit restrictive.


I'm sure if you try this in Theed, you can powerboost every time. But if your on some of the fairly flat, yet still rough, terrain of dantooine, you will have a frustrating time trying to get power boost to work.

I was pleasently surprised last night to find out that whenmy COB macro firedand I was using a special it would "cue" (yellow box around it on the toolbar). If I stopped moving immediately (I could continue attacking and even be attacked - just couldn't move) it would reapply.

Great tip on the PowerBoost macro. I threw in a /pause 8; /Stand on the end just for giggles.


Have a problem with the CoB as a default, though. Since I respec'd to MRifleman from MCH, I now have to unequip my rifle to do CoB, but I can't set any custom Macros to be a default attack. I can pick any normal action, even the different recoveries, but no macro.


I currently have a macro that unequips the weapon, hits CoB, Equips the weapon, and repeats as CoB wears off. Not very clean though, since if I'm moving when it goes off, CoB fails, and in heavy spam the weapon doesn't always re-equip. Not to mention when I go hand to hand I have to dump the Macro. Just kinda clunky.


Any suggestions on getting CoB in the mix a bit smoother?

With meditate it says it can heal wounds, I only have Meditate I right now and I don't see it healing wounds. Do I have to have a higher skill in Meditate or does it take forever? and what is the heal rate?
