Sometimes I see the words "Resist" come up when I use it. That's fine. But other times absolutely nothing happens. No text telling me it missed/resisted and not working either. And also, the description of the skill says nothing about it being a chance attack.

Look at it this way. Bone slicer and that reduce defence thingy skill doesn't mention it being a chance attack too, yet they sometimes fail to inflict the de-buff on your enemy.

I think the problem isn't that it's failing, more so there's no indication if the failing is due to luck (ie being resisted) or a bug (ie game not reacting to the skill).

If it's going to fail for some reason in game, thats fine, just tell us why its failing ;)

Agreed. Also, It's always bugged me that the enemy's damage is shown on your lifebar before they finish their attack, yet I'd have to wait after the mini-lag spike (just after dealing damage) in hopes that my skill had any effect.

It's not bugged. Skills only have a fixed chance of inflicting their status upon the target, depending on the monster you're fighting, his level, type, etc. There's always an infinitely small chance that the skill will not apply its effect at all even if it hits, and that goes for Concussive Charge as much as the other skills.

Archers have this same issue with their poisons, and Clerics with their (later) bleeds. It's not a bug, just an annoyance you need to learn to live with.

Again, that is fine, but a message saying thats the case would be appreciated instead of having to wonder if my attack bugged or I'm lagged or something. Like a nice little "Failed" or "Resisted" message.
