Am i missing something? Activate ability isn't highlighting? Not in or out of combat.
I've tried to put Batteries, Oil, Kerosene, and Acid into it. Doesn't use them.

Odd, it worked for my chainblade dagger, doesn't need fuel. It DOES have a certain cooldown though. That might be bugging at the moment?

Any chance you might have used it before a server reset?

I'm having trouble with the Chainblade ability on a bastard sword. The ability will cast in that the icon goes dark, but there doesn't appear to be a stamina drain or any type of additional damage as a result.

Keep using it Foogoo, keep in mind they get to roll twice their armor vs a chainblade attack. You might just be having a streak of bad luck if you only used it a few times.

Does "a streak of bad luck" include the lack of a stamina drain when activating the ability? If no stamina loss occurs when the attempt is unsuccessful, then so be it. But I attempted to use the ability more than just "a few times" during two different IC excursions, and I doubt my luck is that poor.

If an attack is made with the slightly off color message then the script is firing. Could be an issue with stamina but if you want to check the damage try nuking a rat or something.

Sorry PE. Used, Script fired. Hit, but no damage... no damage Immunity or Damage reduction either. so Damage never made it 'to' the Skellie you can see all the normal stuff on the following attack.

That's not an invalid outcome. The script works by calling the weapon damage code with a multiplier of 2 and a negative damage bonus equal to half the target's next armor roll. If the net damage is negative or zero the script won't do anything. Either way I'm going to look at the script again.

am i understanding that it takes a Full round to use, and its effect is taking the First attack of the next round. (so replacing 3+ attacks) for a chance of double damage, that they get to double up their Defense, Immunity, and Reduction?
