Community Effort: NIN and Mudra System

[kehn]

I agree with the people saying the madras should go away. in the concept it was a really cool idea but in practice is terrible. we should just get the jutsu hotkey

[Vespar]

The Mudra issues are the sole reason I refuse to play Ninja anymore. I love the job otherwise, but the constant mudra issues messing me up killed it for me. I dont see why every mudra cant just be its own ability. Since thats essentially what happens and we already have the "icons and abilities" listed in the actions menu.

Just make it so when we click on one of the actions like Raiton, etc it would perform the mudra animation and then cast the ability.

Until its fixed, I probably wont play it again.

Hell they don't even have to do a lot of work to fix this. They can leave the mudra's in the game so they don't have to re-write the story and make the jutsu's add able to the hotbar and act in the way I have been saying. that way we get to choose which we want to use. the new way or the old way.

Posted a question on the live letter thread in the hopes if it will not be addressed here, maybe we can get an update in the live letter.

Please support by liking it. Will also put link on main post.

Which ditching the mudra input and adding the animations to the skills themselves would fix all this. The whole reason I can see for this silly system is to save hotbar space and to stay in the same amount of skills learned at certain point in relation to the other jobs. Ditching the mudra's only adds 2 skills to our Hotbars at this time.

But I like them

Just to restate it. They can leave the mudra's in the game so they don't have to re-write the story and make the jutsu's add able to the hotbar and act in the way I have been saying. that way we get to choose which we want to use. the new way or the old way.

I really do not see the problem. Even if it takes 2.5-3 seconds to activate a three mudra combo, what is the problem? Ninja does far more than enough damage to complete any of the current content. So what if you waste a second here or there when you are still doing comparable damage to all the other DDs in the game? Hell, you can even mitigate some of that wasted time by using Ninjutsu when you are dodging AOEs. I play Ninja just fine and I don't have WTFast. Stop being drama queens.

Wow, somebody missed the whole point of the thread.

The point was to harass SE enough for them to fix Mudra input lag. I am saying deal with it because it isn't that big of a deal.

[Kitfox]

I'm 100% sure they can't fix the lag. Mudras need a redesign. Longer timers or GCD weaving.
