Final Fantasy XIV Auto-Attack Video

[Felis]

Over all I'm happy about this battle video, knowing TP remains is all Myself and my friends were concerned about. I'm curious about how they'll treat skills that rely on stamina like Tranquility or Second wind.

Second wind is a TP skill. Cost 250 TP
Maybe they increase the TP cost a bit to 500?

So far, So good =)

Looks like they need to find a way to animate the feet while moving and preparing your weapon at the same time.

Might be tricky depending on how they have the skeleton set up and how it receives the motion capture.

The goblin tells me that he is angry he was the target of this video. He feels victimised. He was only minding his own business, picking onions, and this happened? Not once, not twice, but thrice.

You will be hearing from his lawyers, apparently.

The video was good. Auto-attack looks good. Will they make the timers on abilities much higher though? Recall, they said they will need to make battles more difficult if they add auto-attack. There are only two ways for them to do that, longer ability times or all enemies have higher HP or defensive skills. Time will only telling if auto-attacking is a winner...

They could add more interesting tp abilities etc that require more movement to keep the players attention more now they're not spamming button presses, too.

Nah, battles are not more difficult. He solo'd a monster 10 levels above him with ease, just let that soak in...

Well that was worth months and months of waiting. You can pull out a weapon while running! Game changing cutting edge epic shit right there! It's like running with scissors but cooler. Here's the kicker: you can put scissors into your pocket WHILE running! AMAZING!

I've been auto-attacking for years in XI so that feature doesn't exactly blow my mind.

+1

I take the video as a sign that they're working on what we want them to be working on. Don't act like every update is the final update. They have a lot more to do and they know it. This is a good start. We want auto attack and different battle animations. Next is job diversification and stat/attribute changes and so on.

It'll always be the next patch that will bring something we need to the game, don't you see the pattern? SE are expert liars.

I think waiting to release 1.18 is a good idea. Good things come to those who wait !! Man that looks damn good !!
