Just wondering what your experiences have been with this ability when fighting in a party against mobs much higher level than you.

I find that when soloing it hits so frequently, but when I fight much harder mobs I see the stamina bar go down but no animation and resist notification but the ability fails to either launch or affect the mob.

I suspect (as I see the stamina drain) that the mob is somehow resisting it, but without any animation or confirmation this is purely speculation. Albeit a viable and possibly correct guess.

Do the rest of you experience this at all?

Yes, I have seen this. I assume it's a resist as well, since it goes on cooldown, you lose stamina, and there is no debuff on the mob. But I never see a resist message, it just doesnt work.

It's a resist/miss, if you use Comrade in Arms and you get no action, you can follow up with Feint.

Top tip thank you very much.

I didn't realise a resist was a miss and have never followed this with feint.

Okay, here is my observation with this...

If you hit comrade in arms too early, i.e: when you dont ALREADY have enough Stamina ... It will "activate", but not place the debuff... but will drain your stamina when you DO have enough..

It has hit (observationally speaking) 100% of the time when I already had enough stamina and TP... but I will say it hits 0% of the time when I hit the ability too early.... yet it will still activate the cooldown on the move, and will drain my Stam...

Support on this? I attributed it to a bug, not a "miss" or "resist"
