Fatalities not working?

Hi guys I’m on PC with mods.

So once enemy is “stunned” I cant perform fatalities.
I aim at them and try clicking left or right mouse button - nothing, not even normal attack.

Now I don’t know whether I’m doing it wrong or maybe my mods messed up something

Sounds like you’re doing it right. I don’t touch the WASD keys after activating the animation, but that is probably not the problem.

Official or private server? Single player? What weapon?

When they wobble step back and standard attack I find this helps. :grin:

This one’s experience is that whether an execution occurs or not is as random as whether the enemy goes into a dazed state.

It is more likely to actually trigger if this one is trying to fight thru a purge.

I am on a modded private server, I tried with a great sword, tried with a short swords - not even one fatality and I killed multiple enemies, they do stun, but fatality does not pop up, I click aiming at them and nothing happens, even normal attacks seem to be “blocked”.

Hey Bathory.

I play on a private server with my friend, no mods, and while he has no problem performing fatalities, I can’t do them 90% of the time. Some days I log in and I go fight someone and find that I can do a fatality, only to have the ability vanish five minutes later after I’ve gone somewhere else. Just yesterday, we were farming purge kills for our new weekly challenges, and I suddenly did a fatality on a purge attacker. A minute later, I died. When I got back to the purge site after respawning, the ability was gone.

I don’t know if it’s tied into swapping weapons, having a thrall with me, my stamina, whether I teleported or not… it just seems entirely random. As an SQA Engineer myself, I’m sure there’s a coding explanation behind it, I just haven’t figured out what combination of items corresponds to making them work/not work. Especially when I watch my friend performing them right next to me while I’m unable to do so.

Trust me though, it’s not because you’re too close or too far or not standing in front of the dazed victim. It’s something else.

can’t do them either…in aproximately 100 kills (humans) I got maybe 2 fatalities.
I used short sword and 2h swords.

What’s the option selected for that server?

I did not know about this new option, thanks Taemien!

It was marked as ON, but looks like something got jammed, I unmarked it and marked again and suddenly fatalities started to work. Not on every attempt but they do work now and I get the buff and animations.
