I'm not a Gunman myself so unfortunately, I can't name this ability. I've encountered it several times (if not each time) when fighting Duelist NPCs (of course, with dual pistols, lol). It's that move where he stands away a few meters from you (I can't exactly remember if he kicks you away or jumps backwards), shoots a few times from the distance and then performs a horizontal flying jump towards you while shooting many times. A sommersault on the floor follows and then he shoots once more.

I hope this description should do it SMILEY

However, the phase where he shoots you a few meters back is the one bugged, because he stands there completely frozen while your character obviously gets hit by the shots the enemy is supposed to perform.

Any thoughts?

Well, I've experienced that sometimes any weapon skin misses in an animation, be it a tactic or ability. However, I've never seen only one gun instead of two, and I've never seen any guns missing in this particular move. But that's just me SMILEY

OK, I've checked the system window, and it was definetely Pistol Aerial. Wonder how long it is till it's all fixed already...

Its definitely Pistol Aerial. I also think Pistol Aerial is responsible for the desynching of Interlock (the RSIs are no longer facing each other while fighting, animations are totally desynched). Or it may be the whole tree that's susceptible to desynching Interlock.

No, I don't think so.. That's been around before, no matter what style the two opponents use. The separate styles have their own flaws, though, particularly certain moves not being played at all and the responsible character freezing.

By the way, how long has Pistol Aerial been bugged this way?
