Hiya all. I have a strange question to ask for all you TKA's that use the UnarmedKnockdown1/2 + Warcry combo.
I got all the way up to Teras Kasi Master, and I made a macro which does:
/unarmedknockdown2; (or unarmedknockdown1)
/warcry1;
/warcry1;
Yes, I put /warcry1 twice. Why? Because when I only do it once in my macro, I fail 1/3 times the Warcry. When i do it twice, I only fail it 1/10 times or versus Piket Huntersit's almost 100% of the times.
What is this? A bug? An exploit to increase the warcry's chances of succeeding? I'm asking this because I was wondering if I should always do a double warcry, instead of only once. By doing a double warcry, I lose 1 turn of an attack, but at least I'm almost garantied it will succeed.

You should not macro combat. Watch the combat window and repeat /warcry1 if it doesn't work the first time.

/agree
don't macro any combat moves as you may have to hit knockdown twice, besides I would add a dizzy as the first move, then knockdown then warcry. I still think that warcry1 is useless as the animation takes too long and delays you 3-4 seconds making it only a 4-5 delay on the mob with the lag.

Im glad im not the only person to notice that!
It takes about half an hour for my **edit** tka's arms to drop after warcry... I dont even bother with it now, just kd2 and intim x.X

From viewing my combat log i have noticed that even though the animation still shows me doing the warcry arms i am still actually hitting my target. The animation is cool to watch though especially for unarmed3. But basing your combat solely upon what you see on the animation can prevent you from taking advantage of "sneaky" hits that you don't see.

I agree... I notice I usually get 2-3 hits in before the animation for warcry1 is done.
