Dogs of War Online

I'm pretty sure that it is bugged, since when my Wolfen Archer is in contact with the enemy unit the probability to hit it drops always around 1% (or 20-40% if he's with full health!)

Check out log left-upper screen after contact shot. It should say smth like "-6 penalty for melee range shot", if so, then "contact shot" ability is not working, actually.

After some trials to get in the correct position without being hurt beforehand, here is the screenshot:



Wolfen Archer with Contact Shot ability in contact with a Valkyrie (she was already hurt, 30HP total, she engaged, not charged, the Wolfen didn't move and was at full health, no orders were used neither by the Wolfen nor the Valkyrie) -> 20% probability to hit! Without contact shot what would it be? 0%?

After the turn finished, the probability went up to about 50-60%, so the Contact Shot seems to work only the turn after the unit has been engaged (rendering it pretty useless, since the unit will seldom survive a 1vs1 with a melee unit for more than 1 turn... or you get a penalty of about 30-40% to be engaged, not charged, it seems strange...)

Could you make a screenshot of battlelog (upper-left corner) right after the shot? I just think that "percantage shower" might be bugged and ability might work fine...

There is a bug in Client estimation concerning this case.
It should be fixed with the next patch.
