    [Dev1029] Thief

    Thief

    Melee weapon skills will have a chance of enhancing Treasure Hunter effectiveness.*1
    Weapon skills used alone will grant the enhancement at the same rate as standard melee attacks.
    Weapon skills combined with Sneak Attack or Trick Attack will grant the enhancement at the same rate as melee attacks made with these abilities active.


    *1 For multi-part weapon skills, the calculation will only be performed for the first hit.
    Has any other THF been able to proc TH off of a WS yet?

    I've been trying to test it solo by WS'ing a few times > Bully > Sneak Attack. All the proc messages I get are TH5 (starting from TH4 base.)

    I believe they mentioned that normal WS will have the same TH upgrade chance as a normal melee hit (extremely low), and WS stacked with SA/TA have the same chance as normal hits stacked with SA/TA. So unless you do SAWS or TAWS or both, you probably won't get an upgrade from that. Or did I misunderstand that?

    I got a friend who got into the testing too and will test that. I remember them saying it wouldn't show up in the chat log though. So that means to see it, you'd have to proc TH via SA/TA or normal hits.

    Edit: I meant proc TH after doing the WS to see if the WS increased it or not. I'd like to be able to see it in the chat log still though...

    This is something they implemented for testing right after opening test servers back up again. Prior to most recent update to test server.
