Adrenaline Smiter does not work with chain weapons

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Bugs
1

Issue Type (Required):

Talents

Issue Description (Required):

Using Adrenaline Smiter with the Assault Chainaxe/Chainsword does not work consistently. With any rip attack on those weapons there is a high chance that killing enemies won’t grant the stacks of adrenaline. Special Attacks especially.

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

  1. Use an Assault Chainaxe/Assault Chainsword for melee and have Adrenaline Frenzy with the Adrenaline Smiter modifier.
  2. Kill any enemy qualified to gain Adrenaline stacks with any attack that use rip damage (i.e chainaxe mkIV light attack/special attack on either)

Reproduction Rate (Required):

Often (<75%)

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

I have the same issue as well, I believe the times it works is when the first hit of the chainsaw kills instantly. (edit) This issue has also not yet been patched since the hotfix today.

I have also recently discovered that the Bonesaw’s first heavy attack has the same problem. Just to update that another weapon is affected here.
