Wasn't XI only a menu-sided combat system?
I guess that macros kind of solve everything anyway =D What me and danny meant was more like a hybrid, having a skillbar + a Menu. That I guess is a lil' time consuming and maybe less user friendly.
Well, I'd say I like the one that we have now, and it only has to be bettered. Having more ways to engage battle is fine too though, but I would never change it.
