Cells and cylinders

Post by pata »

Can abilities with a percentage effect (ion cell, plasma cell, combustible gas cylinder etc...) apply their effect on the target only with the base attack (hammer shot, rapid shots) or any ranged attack?

I am sure I saw it on my Trooper, that it had the effect with all shots but this was back in July when I was testing so may hvae changed.

Cannot say for trooper but for BH any kind of blaster attack can trigger the effect of that i am sure. I think (here i am not absolutely sure) that even ranged rocket attacks were causing the effect as well as flamer (short range AOE) but those attacks were on the end of my rotation (because of high heat) or were very devastating (death from above) so they wiped the targets so that i cannot really say for sure. I am absolutely positive that melee attacks did not cause the effect ie rocket punch (or as i call it Shoryuken (o:). Hope that helps a bit.
