Comrade In Arms I & II...

I was just wondering if anyone else is having a problem activating this move. Im not the type of person that spams attacks, I basically wait until the latest queued move is performed before clicking my next attack. When it is time for me to activate Comrade In Arms, a large percentage of the time.. It fails.. Im not talking about missing or the Mob being immune.. Im talking about the loss of TP and Stamina and..NOTHING.. no animation, no text, no anything.. besides a 50 second cool down timer for the next activation.. This move can make or break certain fights. As a Lancer, I like to support the party as much as possible.. I would like this to be fixed, because im assuming it is a bug.. unless I can get some clarification. :-\

Happens to me also... I started to assume that it was just being "missed". Though I noticed a big increase if I tried to do this move without enough stamina.. it seemed to always drain my stam and activate a CD on the ability...

It seems to happen to me quite frequently but I assumed I was just missing and possibly missing the dialog in the chat.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed it, it seems that this never want to work for me.

This can happen with the Marauder skill "Disorient" as well. It counts as a missed attack since you can use the skill Feint if Disorient or Comrade in Arms fails. I really have no idea why this skill can even fail, it should work 100% of the time. It also costs way too much stamina, much like many other skills in this game.

I have also seen it "miss", but the effect still goes through. It always happens to me in big parties where the visual effect doesn't go off but in the chat log it says i activated it.

it works for me, but sometimes the animation does show.

happens to me a majority of the time it seems.

animation only goes off when u landed and thats only when u see that it says "command in arms" but a miss text or something would really help. Im used already to if i dont see anything i know i miss but i try to do this at 1000tp so if i miss i can feint right away.

What would help is if it didn't miss. This is an ability that should not miss.

Or at least it should land sometimes xD i've never seen it landing on a singular NM fight

I tested this on the Buffalo NM many many times and the best way that I have found to use this ability. Is to make sure you have enough stamina to use the ability before you select to use it. The problem that I have with this ability not working correctly is when I select to use it before i have enough stamina. It lands more often for me when I have plenty of stamina to use.

I've heard slot of my other LNC friends say putting stats into MND greatly effected wether it sticks or not

I have this issue...where if I use it before I have enough stanima it doesn't go off properly. If I have sufficient stamina I don't think I've ever seen a miss...but as noted above, my MND is jacked.

Well personally I don't think I've had this problem. I'll test it later today and see if I have it too
