Arbites Forceful keystone triggering (details)

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Bugs
1

Issue Type (Required):

Talents

Issue Description (Required):

The forceful keystone does not begin stacking when using the tactical axe to attack (its supposed to stack on staggering hits or blocks) . I have the concussion talent that makes all headshot make enemies count as being staggered.

IMPORTANT: it’s only the first stack. If I block an attack, it will give me a stack. Then all my headshots actually stack the buff and I can maintain it. It just requires a block at the beginning to start it off.

No other weapon I tested (chainsword, crusher, shock maul) had this issue. The block work around is ok for now, but I think this is a bug.

[PC] Do You Use Mods? (Optional):

Yes, but I haven’t tried disabling them

Reproduction Rate (Required):

Constant (100%)

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

I can also somewhat reliably start the stacking process using a ranged weapon. this method doesn’t work well into crushers monstrosities, or things you insta-kill.

Force of Will (toughness replenish on staggering melee attack) works with tacaxe even on the first hit. Not sure what the distinction is for the forceful keystone.
