The weapon blessing “Haymaker” also has this issue.

3

Execution mechanics do not ever proc on-kill effects. The Haymaker blessing explicitly states this in its description.

Blinder/Blackout grenade generation is an on-kill effect. Therefore, Hyper-Critical and Haymaker executions will not count toward grenade generation.

This is not a bug.

I’m reporting it because it’s inconsistent, since Hyper-Critical’s instakills are able to activate Adrenaline Smiter (requires melee kills).

5

That is not the topic of this bug. If the bug is with an on-kill effect being granted on an execution, report the source of that on-kill effect as part of the bug, not a correctly functioning on-kill effect that does not proc on executions.

I’m reporting because it works inconsistently across conditions that specify “kills” as requirement.
