Why it takes 4-5 seconds for the pull when you use range weapons?

our chars with Muscle Cramps?

stop using 600 delay guns for pulling ........

welll.. you do have to draw the weapon, load/notch your ammo, aim, then fire. Makes a lot more sens than standing there for 3-5 seconds with your sword/axe/dagger/staff/club drawn staring at a mob before you take a swing....

pulling your arm back for well aimed swings > swinging like an ????

even when you sword fight you do not swing consistently, you wait for good openings and such.

maybe periodically you may pause to sum up your opponent, but you don't do it on EVERY swing. Even in fencing, they will swing 3+ times before scoring a point, then they pause. This is just a game mechanic to work around the time-wait system without making it where we have to click a target everytime we want to attack with a normal weapon. I'm glad ranged is a per attack mechanic though--you could create a serious hate control issue if you were able to spam ranged attacks faster.
