Are Grim Focus Stacks Supposed To Be Canceled When You Kill An Enemy?

Even if I don't use the skill at full stacks, once I kill the last enemy, all my stacks disappear, was this changed? I'm pretty sure I was able to keep them as stacks out of combat yesterday...
Necromancer summons are still bugged in U47 on live and it has been 77 days since ZOS has said anything.

    Sounds normal to me. Switch the merciless and you should keep the stacks. They really need to update the tool tip on how this skill works. As far as I can tell, the stacks for grim focus are based on being in combat. Kinda strange since being in combat is not clear and rarely correct.

    Looks like it only happens when in Imperial City (maybe Cyrodil too, haven't checked it). Outside in overland content, the stacks don't reset outside of combat.

    That sounds right. It's part of the description that they didn't bother to add.

    Merciless still persists through combats for me. (IC)

    Is it something specific to Grim Focus?

    Is it disappearing on bar-swaps? (I'm using Oakensoul).

    Maybe it's just an issue with quality control where they never tested the base skill against its morphs.

    You can slot Merciless passive on the second bar and use it as WD-Buff on the first bar.

    Right, but they’re talking about Grim Focus, the base skill.

    I haven’t used that in a looooong time, so perhaps the base skill is bugged in some manner, whereas its morphs are functioning correctly.
