Why did I die?

Good point as well, not that it's ever happened on my monk either and I play from Europe with shit latency.

DSM is literally just reaching at straws because he can't deal with being twice wrong.

Thank you for continuing to concede via rage post. Lack of rebuttal and insults are not a valid argument.

You can happen to riposte right when you are FDing, which will break FD. Same concept with leaving autoattack on while FDing, as you are swinging your weapon at the same time as you are FDing. These scenarios will not provide a "fallen to the ground" message

Ah I understand what this is saying now. Your most recent post was very helpful to clarify. I misread the grammar - I’ve been abroad for a but and my English brain hasn’t fully retaken dominance of my processing yet. Thank you for clarifying.

Never happened on my monk and even if it did the mobs whacking you would give it away that something failed. Conning a mob would be stupid and not change a thing in such an instance. Same goes for mob casting btw.

Just because something hasn't happened to you (or you didn't notice it), it doesn't mean it can't happen. I got 70 "fallen to the ground" messages out of 3221 FD attempts, which is also a rare occurrence.

Telling people that conning mobs is a bad strategy to determine if FD failed is nonsense. Please stop spreading misinformation. This is a great way to check if mobs behind a corner are still running at you, as a simple example.

Also, thank you for agreeing with me that there are other methods to check if FD failed besides the "fallen to the ground" message.

You also don't even use a cancel autoattack-macro. Your data is trash.

Sucks to be wrong DSM. Move on with your life.

Seems like the only person who should move on is yourself.

I use a cancel autoattack macro on my Monk, and know how to turn auto attack off before FD on my SK. It's never an issue, except in your imagination where you want to see me fail for some strange reason.

Thank you for conceding via rage post.

When somebody gets so used to using a crutch that he can't function without it anymore, quite often he will convince himself that everyone else needs the same crutch, too. Of course it's not true, but it doesn't stop the formation of such perceptions. Hence why he would expect a person not doing it to fail.

Can't say I use /con to check FD fails though. Never seemed necessary to me. Either you get the fail message, or something that breaks feign is extremely obvious, like something landing a spell cast. /conn doesn't hurt but seems redundant if the player's already properly paying attention. I can think of some particularly tough splits where I was splitting stuff while being chain-blinded. All I had to use was hotkeys and audio. That's about as tough as conventional feign situations will get.

FD “fails” when

A) you fail to turn off autoattack
B) a mob was casting on you and spell landed after a FD.
C) “Player_abc falls to the ground”

That’s it.

A) this is player failure and fixed only by not being stupid
B) this is a combination of player not paying close enough attention or bad luck
C) this is luck. I suspect spell FD has a flat small% chance to fail. Skill level based for monks but with a flat percentage (probably higher% than spell) to fail as well even at max

Prior to this thread I have never seen anyone advocate for conning a mob to ensure FD succeeded.

I mean why would you. The game Fckin tells you if it failed.


DSM was just caught with his pants down not understanding some pretty basic shit about this game. Rather than own it and move on we’re doing mental gymnastics to rationalize and explain away his knowledge deficit.

This thread is hilarious.

No worries! Thanks for the response.

Troxx continues to give bad advise by not understanding how /con works. You can use /con to see if mobs are still scowling/threatening after you have FD'ed. One useful scenario for this is when you cannot see the mobs.

Please stop spreading misinformation because of your uncontrollable urge to spam/troll threads.

I did own it. I admitted it, and never denied it. https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...71&postcount=6 .

The people who are floundering because they cannot admit that they are wrong is yourself and Toxigen. This is why you are trolling right now, because you are the one doing mental gymnastics in an attempt to be correct. You are floundering so hard you have to put a quote of mine in your signature to try and feel better about yourself.
