Hi there, Thanks for reaching out and for the footage. Please note the following about Weighted Throwing Knife's description: [quote]Precision final blows with this knife immediately recharge your class ability.[/quote] If an enemy isn't slain with a precision kill by the knife, then it's intended that no class recharge is granted. We hope that this clarifies why this ability may appear inconsistent.

    this is not the issue I am referring to. After further testing, I've found that the bug I previously mentioned is actually prevalent across all Knife variants, but I will also explain the issue in more detail: To start with, the "Knock 'Em Down Aspect" states that "While radiant, final blows with your equipped Throwing Knife fully refund your melee energy"; If you combine this with Ember of Torches (powered melee hits make you Radiant), this means your melee SHOULD be refunded upon every kill with a Throwing Knife. However, as the previous footage, and the video below will show, the melee refund from Knock Em Down sometimes fails to register when a target which was defeated with the melee was also Scorched. Here is the video showing the bug across all Knife variants: https://youtu.be/WFNXlb9Mxr0?si=eoJBIcruUv78BOp0 My best guess as to what is happening, based on the strange timing in which this seems to frequently occur, is that the damage effect from Scorch is activating at the same time, or immediately before or after the Knife has impacted the target, tricking the game into thinking that it was actually the Scorch that killed the target and not the Knife (therefore, it is not refunded), but honestly I wouldn't know.
