Ok, I'm loving the crap out of this game but I got very disappointed just now.
I'm playing a Wood Elf Archer and I chose the "Power Shot" perk which does the following: "Arrows stagger all but the largest opponents 50% of the time".
No, no they don't. Not at all.
Anyone else encountered this? Is it a bug? Or am I doing something wrong?
I stagger enemies with it all the time. It is a life saver. I can actually just use my bow most of the time with this perk, since every time I stagger an enemy rushing me it gives me time to hit them with another arrow. And it does feel like it works about 50% of the time. Occasionally I'll stagger an enemy 2-3 times in a row.
It is an awesome perk.
I don't know if you are having a bug, or not realizing when you've caused an enemy to stagger. Also, make sure you are pulling your arrows back all the way before you fire.
