focus beam implies its only useable with a beam type weapon, ie, not an acid launcher, not a flamethrower, and certainly not a rocket launcher. what weapon are you trying to use it with?

I am using a modified cdef carbine. All the beam weapons that i looked at were for higher levels then i am. I am level 10.

... i really dont know.. all i can think of is perhaps its useable only with a rifle then, as special attacks should be useable with normal weapons, i'll have to check commando again i guess. your definitely sure the special attack isnt working when you try to use it with the carbine? the simplest way to determine if a skill will work with a weapon, is when you equip the weapon, x's appear on the icon, as in x can't use skill, make sure your in range too, if your in range to hit with the weapon, and the skill shows an x, then it can't be used. if there is no x, make sure you are activating it correctly, you can activate a skill by either pressing the associated number to go with the skill, 1 for box1 etc or, if you have it by right click activation only, have the skill selected and then right click to use it. hope that helps...

I was within range with the carbine and the x was still on the skill. Any other suggestions?

ok, now i know the answer.. sorry the advice i gave was wrong. there have been a few changes to the commando expertise.. again..

focused fire - any ranged weapon - but not heavy weapons
focused beam - heavy weapons only
