stone cold.8609 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 For the last couple of days, the Holosmith Photon Blitz skill is not activating properly for me. Sometimes when I press the key for the skill, it doesn't activate, and then immediately goes on either partial or full cool down. Sometimes I can see the animation for Photon Blitz begin, but then abruptly stop when this happens. I especially notice this when I try to use Photon Forge too quickly after Corona Burst. It sometimes happens when I'm moving while trying to use the skill. It is a bit frustrating and I am wondering if this could be looked into.Other details: This happens in open world PvE, in the new PoF maps, and I've been playing solo. I'm running Explosives/Tools/Holosmith trait lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aetatis.5418 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 A bit late answer tho, but this happens a lot for such skills, when you are facing your target in the wrong angle.Happens to me on all channel skills little photon blitz ( e.g. axe 2 on necro) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stone cold.8609 Posted December 13, 2017 Author Share Posted December 13, 2017 Thanks Aetatis! So it seems that this may be a feature then? Anyone know what is the angle that the target needs to be in front of you? It looks like maybe somewhere around 90 degrees? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aetatis.5418 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 No clue about the angle, but using the action cam allows you to use it without a target. With the correct settings (allow channel skills to switch targets) it is even more easy to use and land.It only applies if you like the action cam and if you have everything bound to your keyboard and mouse ofc (which is basic for me... But I know it's not for many players out there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
