I don't know if the devs even read this or they exclusively pay attention to steam, but this problem needs to be stated. Getting student of war to level 10 is a waste of class levels because (a) deadly blow doesn't work and (b) know your enemy doesn't give the full bonus. What I mean is that enemies that have inherent immunities to critical hits (e.g. various elementals) are still immune to crit even if struck by a level 10 student of war after said SOW successfully uses know your enemy. Yes, the ancient problem of know your enemy not being a swift action was fixed, but the bonus still caps at +2. Let's say you choose martial stance and hit an enemy with a weapon focused weapon. The attack roll in the log still says +2 when by level 7 it was supposed to increase to +3. Main problem is still the fact that deadly blow doesn't bypass crit immunities (which is the whole special ability of SOW).
Be sure to send in a bug report at that point via (Alt-B) in game.

Fill out the info and they will get it.
This is immensely presumptuous of me, but is it possible for someone else on this thread to do it? I really get muddled with all these extra steps required just to send a bug report, and I am half-afraid this is a problem only I experienced. However, some ancient and obscure posts on other threads (some on reddit) remarked on this same problem, and I also fear this is a problem that has long been ignored. I really don't care who does or how does this info get to the devs, I, and anyone else playing Student of War, probably just want to get this fix implemented as soon as possible.

If you do not report the bug yourself do NOT assume the people responsible for fixing it will know the bug exists. I have experienced this issue on other games, the bug was not fixed until AFTER I reported it myself. Sometimes days after I first noticed it. Incidentally, unless somebody is experiencing that same issue the in-game bug reporter will do no good. Especially if it is due to settings on your computer, whither option settings or hardware configuration. Yes, sometimes software problems can come from hardware configuration.

Alt-B followed by 2 pick-an-option boxes then provide a description given is all it needs, nothing to complex.
Also I should point out, that because of the large variety of classes in this game, I imagine only a tiny percentage have even tried student of war and an even smaller percentage would have noticed the bugs if they exist. I certainly haven't tried that class and don't plan to since it doesn't appeal to me.
Good luck on that.

I have reported a bug with the brown-fur transmuter's lvl 20 ability last year. It has not been fixed yet.
On Steam i recently asked about it. Someone from Owlcat said it is in the works. That was on the Update 1.4.0d BETA topic.
There was nothing in the following patch notes about it. I assume it is still not fixed.
I have not touched the game since ‎November ‎2021 (game version 1.1.4i).
