Backstab issue

Unread post by Rudolph »

I don't know if this is a bug, but I just took the feat Backstab and there doesn't seem to be any way to activate it. It can't be dragged to the quick slots nor activated via right-clicking on the PC. In the wiki, however, it says that it needs to be "used" and can only be used once per round.

If this isn't a bug, what do I need to do to use it?

Last i tried, it worked automatically when attacking from behind and in a party. (Even got a message.)
Not sure if it is useful at all if you fight alone.

Correct, it's an automatic feat.
Had it working on a toon for a long time. Sneak up behind, whack away for a nice +2ab. Little red writing will appear in screen when it activates by itself during attack.

It was originally manually activated, but I later found a way to make it automatic.
I must have forgotten to change the description.

Thanks for doing that, Rasael. I feel much better risking a feat on this now. I hope the message will pop up often for my assassin, he he.

Hello Community,

i checked the combat log and the Bonus (AB + 2) wasn't applied.
