Freshtech Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Sorry if this is a noob question, but can someone please explain to me what overload saber does or how it works? I was under the impression that after activation and 3 melee attacks, the target would be set on fire for dot like cauterize. However, it doesn't appear to do anything when I use it. Am I not understanding what overload saber does or am I not doing it right? A typical situation would be force leaping to the target, activating overload saber in mid-air, and hitting strike three times. I see the overload saber animation and the icon counting down the number of hits needed, but I don't see any dot occurring after completing the three melee attacks. Thanks.

Vibeth Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) Overload Saber makes your next 3 melee (white damage) attacks put a dot on the target. That DoT stacks 3 times max, 1 melee attack = +1 to stack. Mind you Overload Saber has a time limit too, so you can't enable it then wait a minute to start stacking. As for your specific problem, the DoT should be up after 3 melee attacks. Problem is, the DoT icon on your enemy is the same as Cauterize (unless it's stacked, in which case it shows how many stacks it has). Also note: Overload Saber doesn't always work when you press it (specially mid air), so you have to press Overload Saber hotkey MULTIPLE times for it to trigger.

Freshtech Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 Thanks for the quick response. I'll check it out tomorrow and be sure to pay close attention to see if it's doing anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
