Libertine Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Just been looking over some fraps videos from tonights(first time i played since this weeks patch) warzones and what struck me as odd is that on a number of occasions carbonize simply doesnt work on enemies even if they dont have a white resolve bar... anyone notice anything similar ? video is currently uploading to youtube but that will take 2 more hours, ill post that when its done.

Umpire Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 i've noticed a lot of times i carbonize ahead of people; it has a slow ramp up time it sorta feels like? You have to get a feel for it. That said I've heard rumors that the set bonus that increases the stun on carbonize really breaks the ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeusThunder Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 It's a lag issue that appears sometimes. Essentially you think your character is one place but game thinks it is somewhere else. So, carbonize is out of range even though it doesn't look like it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libertine Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 then you should already know............that the carbonize is broken............with this set bonus..........its been documented........... *rolleyes* you might want to re-read my post again, the part where it says "recently got 2nd part of combat tech". i had no issues before thursday cause i was running either eliminator or supercommando set up to that point.

Ommadonn Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 what he is tryin to say in his douchie way is that there is a bug wit the two piece bonus taht causes it not to work all the time. there was a few post bout it yesterday. sorry that he doesnt realise that not everyone is reading the forums all the time. maybe they just come to it when they need an anwser. dont mind them.

In 1.1.2 nothing mentioned. Guess its not important enough ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommythecat Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 The combat tech pvp armor set bugs Carbonize so that it rarely works even if conditions are perfect, this is why I wear the Eliminator set lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dharagada Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 It's kind of annoying I wanted to start collecting the other set to try out some other specs, but currently it's not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertine Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 The combat tech pvp armor set bugs Carbonize so that it rarely works even if conditions are perfect, this is why I wear the Eliminator set lol luckily i only have 2 pieces of the set so far and I can replace one of those by equal eliminator gear, gets rid of the 2 piece bonus at least ... still a bit of a bummer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sevvy Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 No wonder my freaking Carbonize never works. Gahhhh! I'm a relatively new Powertech, so I kinda just started reading the boards. Good thing I'm building my Eliminator set now. Fail *** Bioware. o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dharagada Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I wonder if there is some place else we should be posting this. I mean if the vanguard set works it should be a simple easy fix right? Is is possible the devs just don't know yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
