Put extra force behind your strike to possibly knock your enemy  Prone. ( Recharge: Short rest.)

 Concussive Smash ()

Hit an enemy with all your might to deal damage and possibly  Daze them. ( Recharge: Short rest.)

Special weapon actions

This weapon also grants the following:

 Steadfast Strike ()

Slam into a foe, preventing them (and yourself) from being moved involuntarily. ( Recharge: Short rest.)

Notes

Notes included from Tenacity:

• If a weapon action misses, using Tenacity does not trigger its effects.
• As Tenacity deals weapon damage even if an attack misses, it can trigger many on-hit effects from equipment. For example, from the  Gloves of Power, the  Callous Glow Ring, weapon coatings, or any infusion from the  Ring of Elemental Infusion.

Bugs

Bugs included from Tenacity:

• As  Horde Breaker (Melee) rolls invisible, zero-damage weapon attacks against all enemies in the Horde Breaker area of effect, Tenacity can be prompted to trigger against them even if the first attack hits. It is therefore possible to score 2 hits in one attack: the full attack against the original Horde Breaker target and a Tenacity hit against another target.
