We also have existing workaround for some issues that you can find here:

  • What is your character name in New World: Tosan
  • What server/world did you experience your issue on: Zuvendis
  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: As shown in the video link, “Deadly Consistency” and “Refreshing Reach” not working as intended, unless I’m crazy.
  • Is this a bug or an exploit: Bug
  • (if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: Wasted talent points.

I apologize if there’s something obvious I’m missing with the Deadly Consistency, but it just doesn’t seem to work right for me. Would appreciate any corrections.

It just dawned on me that the 10 second timer next to my food buff is probably Keenly Jagged. I only got Keenly Jagged yesterday so I didn’t make the connection, so disregard that part of the video if so.

Good post & footage.
I have 690 hrs played and I’ve been playing bow/spear for at least 500hrs now. Coup de Grace not lunging forward in PvP is a big issue considering to how many benefits you get from it now, the heavy attack cd reduction, damage buff(that’s not working as well right now), fortify on a heavy attack, bleed perk on armor/spear.
In PvE you can almost never reliably Coup De Grace a wolf for example unless that wolf is literally in your face.
Another thing with sweep is that after the patch sweep seems to do damage but not knock targets on the ground. I mostly noticed this happening on high STR users. I vault kick them aka they are stunned > I dodge roll > I sweep > they don’t get sweeped even though sweep does the damage.
Good video example from another spear player that tested this out Sweep - YouTube
Exploited weakness might not work at all, or just doesn’t work with some of the debuffs. Very bad considering how rewarding this is for high skilled gameplay.

Yeah I haven’t noticed that myself, I tested it once, couldn’t replicate it. But something is clearly wrong in his video so I hope they can determine what it is and fix it. I don’t use skewer often thankfully.

And yes, the tracking/lunge on Coup de Grace is atrocious at times, hope they can normalize it, would make it feel 100x better!

I know there’s a plethora of issues being worked on right now, but I hope this is simple enough to fix these 2 talents. I was really excited for the patch buffing these 2 heavy attack talents, but one of them seems to not work at all, and the other only works partially.

Thanks!

I’d like to add, this CD increase on Sweep is very detrimental if you don’t actually land the Coup de Grace (and with the poor tracking on it, it happens often). So pressing Coup actually increases your sweep cooldown, for a talent that is supposed to improve CD reduction it’s doing the opposite. Please fix!
