Maneuver Stuff 12/30/2013 08:04 PM CST
**First, 'maneuver help powershot' is showing wrong message. Secondly, 'maneuver anyjunkletters' does not give an error message. Just does nothing.

**With stealth. Maneuver takes you out of hiding, but you can perform it if you hide after starting it(though not sure if using stealth mechanics):

>hide
You melt into the background, convinced that your attempt to hide went unobserved.
H>maneu clea
You come out of hiding.

'Some time passes before strike happens'

Taking a full step back, you plant your feet and ready a mighty attack.
Swiftly, you attempt to cleave through a warklin mauler with your nimsha!
Your nimsha lands a solid hit to a warklin mauler's right hand!

>maneu clea
You angle to the side and prepare to cleave through your enemy.
>hide
You melt into the background, convinced that your attempt to hide went unobserved.
Dashing in, you attempt to cleave a warklin mauler in half!
A warklin mauler deftly sidesteps your nimsha.


**Maneuver doublestrike lets you use offhand weapons that you cannot normally use based on skill placement:

>maneuv doublestrike
You raise your weapons before you and prepare to strike.
You rush at a warklin mauler, lashing out with your mace!
Your mace lands a solid hit to a warklin mauler's left leg!
Your attack momentum continues with a second strike of your nimsha!

>bash left
The nimsha is simply too large for an offhand attack.


**Lastly, I can get a hit in before the maneuver begins, sidestepping the wait time for maneuvers

>maneu clea
You angle to the side and prepare to cleave through your enemy.
>slic
< You slice a glaes nimsha at a warklin mauler. A warklin mauler attempts to evade. The nimsha lands a light hit to the mauler's left arm.
[You're bruised, nimbly balanced with no advantage.]
[Roundtime 4 sec.]
You feel fully rested.
Dashing in, you attempt to cleave a warklin mauler in half!
Your nimsha lands a solid hit to a warklin mauler's chest!

I kinda like this feature. Especially in risky hunting you can mess up your balance and miss with your maneuver.

Yeah, I'm not sure what Kodius decided to do with the charge time, with respect to being canceled during a swing or not.

I tried this in test just now. I got 0 rt, no combat messaging, my weapon did not leave my hand and a dead critter.

I was using a hhr in crossing gargs.

Is thrown still broken? Works for me...

Seems to be working for me now. It was not on the Monday test. Still getting occasional glances with cleave after using doublestrike.
