    Enkindle Bug?

    Sometimes Enkindle doesn't go off with Garuda-egi. The action will also be put on CD while not activating.

    I find that if I order Garuda to enkindle right after or while she does contagion and/or aerial slash she doesn't cast it, but still wastes the cooldown. Also once you order her to use enkindle make sure you don't order her to do anything else until she executes it.

    I am quite sure. Enkindle doesnt get used or queued up and is put on the long cooldown.

    Aerial Blast is an AoE around the target, not Garuda.

    As for the OP, Namir has it right. I'm not sure exactly what causes this behavior, but I've noticed when you force her to use an ability she seems to ignore other commands for a second or two. If you force cast Aerial Slash then use Contagion while it's channeling, she'll ignore you. This even works with non channeled moves, like using Contagion then telling her to use Aerial Slash during the animation. She'll just use Wind Blade (or stand there if Steady.) It's annoying, but this means it's best to either Steady > Enkindle, or make sure she's used a Wind Blade between abilities.

    I've noticed this as well about garuda-egi and it is very annoying. Although I have this problem with garuda-egi more, I have also been having this problem with my other egi's as well. The animation or the attack won't go off and is put on that 5 minute cool-down. I hope this gets fixed along with that insanely long cool-down. It's incredibly upsetting and unforgiving.

    I can't say I've once had that happen in all of my forays into coil and Ultima where Enkindle is useful this past week. She can take a second to use it but she's still using it.

    I had that today at Turn 1 which is REALLY annoying considering Enkindle sits on a whooping 5minute cooldown xd
    It usually doesn't set off when I'm casting Enkindle on the run.

    2 things I can think of just to check off the list.

    1) Do you have effects/filters from your pet turned off? Maybe it did go off and you couldn't see the effect or the dmg it dealt.

    2) Did the target die as she was reading aerial blast?
