WS Pre-Buffs wasted on Auto Attack

You just have to time it a little better. It isn't hard to account for.

Timing, all that can be said. In FFXI for example, you could waste boost on an auto attack if you time it incorrectly.

You sure about this? When I AA, my buffs stay on me until I do a WS or other attack(Heavy swing, broad swing etc.)

That's correct. I know for certain that auto attack does not remove ferocity, bloodbath, or hawk's eye because I'll activate them just before I have enough TP and let auto attack top me off before firing off the weapon skill. The buffs remain until the weapon skill is fired.

I've also never had an AA cancel out a buff, it might be insane luck, but I was under the impression that an auto swing never used them.

edit: beat me to it!

With the way the interface is, you can never be too sure lol.

It's actually semi bugged depending on situation because, like if you do cadence, then BR into your skill, and if auto attack procs, you get increase AA damage and BR-Skill damage.

Happened with a few other skills as well.
