Sprint Ability

This might have been said already but this forum is crazy long. I don't want a sprint that automatically happens! That's a horrible idea! Then again a few of these are just as bad >.< Honestly I'm just glad we have sprint.

Either way would get you a max of 20 seconds of sprinting.

50 TP is not enough. It should be 100 TP each second (you gain 100 TP each 3 second outside of battle, after all)

How long is the cool down from sprint? There is no cool down timer for this ability in the video

You should never assume that something will be changed. You have to give feedback. That's the fucking purpose of the forums. It's not useless. This is gameplay feedback too. The functionality of sprint and the movement systems especially deserve feedback.

You know what's actually useless? people saying "it will probably be changed" or "you just need something to do"

its not a problem, what feedback needed?

It has a cooldown, but just isnt listed under the tooltip for whatever reason. When he uses it, you see the icon do the cooldown clock animation slowly. its probably 25 or 30 seconds.

If it were made to be TP drain while sprinting, TP regain could be stopped while sprinting so it wouldnt end up being an infinite sprint.

I don't totally agree with everything the OP said but that doesn't mean I don't think their implementation of sprint can't be improved.

I'm hoping there will be key bindings for macros. Press "KEY" and a list of event happen that you want.
IMO these abilities are hard to place in the active bar. Also might I point out in 1.0 mounting and dismounting could be set to a hotkey; I used ctrl+x making the transition of the animation long enough that after the key press I was moving again.

in The Secret world you just have to hit X which is easy to hit with your thumb while moving. They could just do that.

I completely agree; thanks for posting this. And infested is a good choice of words.

I find it ok that it take all TP and that the duration is (taked TP/50) seconds. The TP need 20 seconds to get full again. This way you don't use sprint always. If you use sprint to get fast in the next battle (the monster would be ~25 yalm away) you would start the battle with low TP.

If it is a TP drain over time, you can use sprint, run the 25 yalms, turn off sprint and start the battle still with high TP. There would be no penalty to use sprint for every short route.

Just increase the CD to 45 seconds and it is not infinite, too.

I don't think everyone should have sprint to begin with. It's kind of awkward. Maybe certain people like monks it's okay. What's the point if we get mounts? I think something like sprint should be part of the identity of a certain job, like monks.

You can't use mounts everywhere.
