    I tested Opportunity strike today:
    I had 130 in the skill and tested it on players and on npc monsters. in both cases it did the same damage if you used after dodge or not. I am not speced into subterfuge however I made sure to use the skill at the exact moment I say the word dodge and the base damage and crit damage was never more then it was when you don't dodge first.
    Pictures and steps are not needed to test, just have the skill at 120 or more (so you can see the damage better) attack with the skill after a dodge and without dodging first and the damage will be the same (the average damage)

    @Krovakin OK, I got my skills at 120 on QA, including specialization -- I just tested using a 2H sword I crafted, and I got 100 crit damage from opportunity strike during 1 of my attempts .. but other than that, the damage seems to be about the same whether or not I use the skill normally or directly after a dodge. I even tried stacking the skill to 6 several times.. didn't seem to make a difference. I also noticed Opportunity Strike seems to hit twice most of the time? Not sure if this is intended or not?

    Marking this as verified.

    For further testing I ran opportunity strike in a "law of averages deck" which basically involved spamming it against mobs while instance master. One trial while also rolling dodge yielded 101 average damage per hit over a couple hundred hits, another rolling it without dodge averaged 103 per hit over about 150 hits. Interestingly my average crit went up from 315 to 375 when rolling opportunity strike without dodge.

    It's possible this was due to an inconsistency in applying Fireflies (buffs affecting non-crit hits were uniform for all attacks), mixed with the naturally erratic nature of crits. But it does make me recall something I noticed about opportunity strike in the past... I remember its average crit being smaller than the average non-crit hit. That wasn't the case here, but thought I'd mention it in on the off chance it's helpful.
