RE: SWTOR formula list
Quote:1) There is a field in the node viewer that indicates which weapon abilities are "special attacks", and all abilities but the basic attack (that I've checked, anyway) have it set to true. I'm certain it wasn't a LOS, as I was spamming Explosive Probe to go off as soon as Ambush cast (and therefore gets triggered by the damage from it), and the Probe went off. I'm also certain it wasn't an interrupt, as this was the first attack I was casting against the mob and wasn't yet in combat (PvE server, too). It's possible it was a dodge and even normal targets (even that low of level) have some defense, as Ambush is a ranged attack. I'll need to test more. As for 1), while that field does exist, we've yet to actually prove that this is what it refers to. I'm inclined to agree with you on it, particularly since the data so far seems to support it, and the field is only present on melee/ranged attacks. Still, we mustn't make assumptions, nor become to attached to previously suggested theories. I'll see if I can do some more testing. Even Angels must kill from time to time...
