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.
