Here's the catch: I want a SS of the map and the name of the boss that has it in CANTHA

Ferocious Strike is a core skill, but it seems it can't be found in Cantha (yet), or no one took the trouble of reporting the boss to both GuildWiki and Xennon's Elite skill list. I haven't encountered a boss with the skill either.

Seeing as someone put a bounty on whoever found Assassin's Promise, I thought I'd do the same.

Oh, and the bounty is off when ANet adds the skill of course.
Sidenote: I own both Prophecies and Factions, and I already have it. Just wanted to let people know this skill isn't available yet, or if it is, to make it become public where to find it.

Having a serious beastmaster ranger, I would take up the challenge...but I already have it good luck!

(Enraged Lunge > Ferocious Strike)

This is a thing I noticed recently, there is no known Canthan boss with the skill. Maybe they forgot to include the boss, or gave it the wrong elite?

As a dedicated beastmaster, I'd argue against Enraged Lunge being better, but as that's not the topic, I just have to say, sorry. I haven't seen a boss use that skill in Cantha.

although ferocisous strike is a core skill a according to my sources (guildwiki)
there is no boss with it in factions, so if u only own factions your just going to have to wait till anet fix it.
and ferocisous strike is much better on a bunny.

I looked at the Canthan ranger bosses, and only one boss stands out as being an unessicary holder of an elite. Daeman has the elite Broad Head Arrow, and yet two bosses come before him with the same elite (both aflicted).

As well, Daeman's team is the only one in the Boreas Seabed mission with pets (crabs ). So I would hazard to guess that Daeman was supposed to have Ferocious Strike, as it would plainly make sense.

There is also a chance that it's a random boss, who doesn't appear every time when you pass his spot.

First of all, none of the Factions bosses do that.

Second, there is one boss who for some reason now spawns twice in the same spot. Maybe they did something like that (only reversed) for this boss.

There is a beastmaster boss outside of Kurzick Jade Flats, not sure what elite though.

this has been noted in a couple of threads. i have personally sent 3 bug reports into a-net back before assassins promised was finally put in. the response i got was something automated about developers taki9ng all suggestions under consideration, but after the third report they added assassin's promise, and i didn't care enough about ferocious strike to keep bugging them. i think everyone else already got it from prophecies anyways, so they didn't get as much fan mail off this one and gave up on it as well.

not every elite can be found in cantha...

so your bounty is pointless.

This is not a programming error. Anet does this to force you into buying prophecies.

@deathfuzzy this post is there because ferocious strike is listed as a CORE skill core skills are capeable of being captured on both continents, ie hundred blades, echo, signet of judgement, etc. ferocious stike SHOULD be capeable of being captured in cantha which it is not at the present time.

Except that Ferocious Strike is core, and as such, is supposed to be in Cantha.

I must be missing something. Where is it listed as a core skill? I went to the Guild Wars site and read through the ranger skills. Nowhere there could I find a list that was the core skills list.

Also, go roll a PVP character--on the PVP char creation screen, choose to sort by campaign. Ferocious Strike is listed under Core.

Well guild wiki isn't always accurate so I'm not taking that for a reason it's a core skill, but if it's listed under the pvp character as a core skill then that would make sense.

Actually, I found a second boss that double-spawns in the same spot. A mesmer at that, and their respective mobs can't be separated by pulling. But that is beside the point.

I'm willing to bet this gets fixed in the coming weeks when they get enough other minor bugs to fix, warranting another update.
