I was wondering if anyone has done a comprehensive test on how to make sure CoB applies, and when it does not. So far, I have found that if I was not moving, or doing anything, it works. But in battle, even if I do not get hit, it will not reapply while I am in combat. Anyone do a more indepth test to know exactly when you can and can't reapply CoB?

The application fails for me (I get a "thunk") under the following conditions:

1. If I move in any direction while it is firing.
   
2. If I fired it right after I have stopped moving (1 second or less). So if I stop moving and immediately try to fire it, it fails.
   
3. If I touch the mouse in any way while it is firing. This may be due to playing "mmo" style where touchng the mouse and hitting a button can equate to turning the toon -- which counts, I guess as "moving" and negates it.
   
4. If I get hit while it is firing.
   
5. If I have the unmitigated audacity to try to fire it before it completely fades (i.e. while it is blinking).
   
6. At random times, it seems to just not feel like "applying" even when I am standing still and not being hit. That is, it usually applies when I do "none of the above" but not always.
   

What we really need is some word from the devs on which (if any) of these are intended and which (if any) are bugs. Some of them are downright strange.

To my comprehension you must be standing still to use it.

I think it works that way:

It adds 500 to defence.
Lets say you have 130 ranged defence and 80 pistol defence. Your base defence will be 210. If you use center of being, it will be 710.
Defence works against accuracy. High accuracy adds to damage. So high defence will act as some kind of armor.

On my TKM/Jedi toon I have a 48% Damage reduction without CoB. With CoB I have a 77% Damage reduction(tested on lvl80 kaadu)

Hope that helps.
