    Cadence?

    I've Used Cadence on my GLA and it seems to work fine when i stack it with a weapon skill, Although when i use Cadence on a different class and stack my buffs it seems to fail and the status effect is still up? Has anyone had this trouble before or is Cadence not meant for any other class? I have a Macro or Cadence and it goes like this
    /ac "Ferocity II" <me>
    /ac "Hawk's Eye" <me>
    /ac "Cadence" <me>
    /wait 2
    /br
    /ac "Bloodletter" <t>
    the macro works fine and there is no delay but after I activate the Battle Regimen it seems Cadence is still up on my Status Effects regardless if my attack hits or misses and there is no increase of damage to my attack. If anyone cares to elaborate on the subject please post. Thank you

    Cadence works on any DOW, so should work. Its optimal Rank 26, so may not work well below that level. The only other thing I can think of is that you will need Swordsmanship.

    Probably a problem with the macro tbh. Try doing it manually and see if it still goofs up.

    I've noticed that....
    Stuff like Ferocity and Raging Strike create a buff that goes away after a successful attack... but most times "Cadence" doesn't go away, making you think one of the circumstances which would cause it to activate haven't been met...
    I'm not sure if it is a bug, but I've definitely noticed it too.. and I only used it manually...
    Sometimes it would work...
    The problem is stacking WS in a battle reg automatically raises their power, so you can't really tell if Cadence has worked... especially when the buff stays up until the timer runs out

    I don't see it wear off after a ws on GLA. I've always assumed that it's a buff that lasts for a set period of time, like still precision. Granted, I've never payed it much attention.

    yeah i use Cadence and Keen Flurry manually and it works, i never had a problem with it, it is possible it works like Bloodbath, if u miss the WS u stacked cadence on, it remains. However, i had glitches with Protect, Shell, Shock Spikes, where the countdown reaches 0:00 and it stayas active on my screen.

    I was always under the impression that Cadence was up until the timer ran out. I had this dream you could pop off multiple WSs with the buff up

    It's just like someone said above. If you miss your WS cadence remains up.

    No. It just stays up for the duration of the ability. Similar to Keen Flurry or Still Precision.
