What powers is this happening with? Remember, your powers do need to recharge before they can fire off again. And if it's an attack, you need a target.
Have my Hasten on auto fire on several characters... Domination on others... click mez shields on some scrappers/brutes... Not seeing any issues with only firing once.
There is a bug that causes autofire powers to sometimes not actually grant buffs when autofired immediately after zoning.

it is hasten and healing flames i notice this with mostly. and it happens right from loggin sometims. the power is most definately recharged to. i know HF comes up for me on my tank every 12-13 secs so i have watched that carefully.
Sometimes after zoning, I'll see my auto-fire power sitting there recharged with that loverly green circle around it and it won't activate.
If I manually hit the button it will fire, and the auto-fire will work properly until I zone. Then there is a small chance that auto-fire will freeze again until manually re-started.
Is this what you are seeing Sharker?

I've been seeing this on Hasten on a number of my gals, and Practiced Brawler on my SR scrapper.

One time, I noticed it was "stuck", but it happened to go off by itself the moment I targeted a foe.. I have no idea if it was related or not, and I have not done any kind of testing to find out.
I have seen this also. I noticed that an auto power wouldn't activate till it's previous casting wears off. So if it recharges faster than the effect it will wait.
Also in battle if you are clicking other powers they will cast before your auto. The auto will wait for a break in your chain before acitvating.
What I've noticed with auto-fires is that it doesn't take priority over your other single click powers. So if you're clicking (or keying) powers constantly, the auto-fired power will queue until you let it fire off. This is of course a general diagnosis.
Otherwise I have noticed PB on my scrapper acting up, but apparently that's because it's changed to where the effect has to wear off before it gets cast again.

That is what I am seeing for sure.
I think it is related to the fact that the Positron contact icon in MA goes to an all-fours stance after the first mission in an arc. 
Very odd bugs showing up lately, indeed.
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"

I noticed this with Hasten on my Scrapper. It was fully recharged as I had just logged in. It simply didn't automate. I waited for at least 10 minutes and it didn't go off until I actually clicked it. After that there was no problem.
I've seen it on my Shield tanker with Active Defense. Not all the time, but I've seen it. At least the green circle is noticeable enough to remind me to click on the thing.
They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

Yup, noticed this with Hasten, Mind Link, and Active Defense.

Sounds like there is another power in queue like an attack power with no target or some other power that needs a target like the vet pet power. If there is no other power waiting for a target then Id say there is problem.
yea, every time i zone i have to redo my auto click (hasten)
<vent>
what sucks is that instead of fixing stuff like this, they will probably press for yet another issue instead.

I've had this happen too. It's also *not* a case of waiting for queued powers. It's also not a case of I've waited a whole 5 seconds and it didn't go off WAH! When it happens I've waited a good 20 seconds until I finally manually activated it.

I have the issue. On my ninjitsu stalker, I have Kuji In Rin set to auto. Two minute duration, 2min1sec cooldown. I logged in, was at the BM. Never fired, not once. I fired it myself. Stood there for the two minutes, never fired again. Mine just plain doesn't fire.
In another example, my blaster has buildup. It wasn't set to auto previously, today I set it and it fired as expected.
Perhaps there is something in connection to those of us who had these power set to auto-fire BEFORE the new issue, and now they are broken.
I haven't yet tried turning it off and then restarting the game to see if I can reset it and have it fire as expected.
We only get ONE auto...now we don't have that. Hope this gets fixed soon.
Hi Guys,
exactly the same with Practised Brawler on the scrappie. Real annoying when in long battles!

From what I can tell, the "auto fire" starts to malfunction once you zone, interact with Wentworths, the Black Market, a store or contact. But as soon as you target a foe and engage in battle, it will fire as normal (even though it sometimes waits for a break in an attack chain) and will continue to do so until no foes are attacking you. After that, it returns to it's "broken" state.
In misions, it seems to work fine... except for the "waiting" that I mentioned, but that I can live with (could be worse, ya' know?).

I don't know if this is what you all are experiencing, but a recent bug is that auto-fire will not activate if you have targeted a non-valid NPC of any kind. This usually happens to me after I leave Wentworths and still have the WW sales contact targeted. Even though my auto-fire is for a self only click (Practiced Brawler), it will not fire if I have a non-combat NPC targeted. If I target a villain or hit escape to remove the target, it works fine.
Cars, police drones, civilians, stores, zone guards, and contacts all serve to disrupt autofire. I just get in the habit of hitting escape to clear my target every so often.

has anyone else noticed that when you set a power to auto fire it goes off once and doesnt go off again? it's doesn't happen all the time but some times it seems to happen when you need it most. even turning auto fire off and then back on doesnt work when this happens. any ideas?
