    you are right about one thing though. it's not perfect.... it's not even as good as what we had before. that's the reason i am full time crafting now.
    You had to spam the basic abilities because they were your source of TP. Once you get the extra guild attacks, this current system isn't really that far from the old one, though less button mashing goes to just building TP.

    Also, I find it really ironic that someone who finds faults within the battle system goes full-time crafting, of all things, to escape the boredom.

    all i can tell you is for pug, there was alot more to your basic attacks usefullness and what you pressed than building tp.


    i could elaborate but their were many different scenarios for how you would use the combination of basic attacks depending on what you were trying to do. Honestly the core of pugilist playstyle was about managing your basic attacks to balance your defense/offense/ ability to react to an enemy.

    lnc from what i played was a bit different, that may be why you see little difference. The current style of play is fairly similar to what lnc was before, aside from trying to maximize peirce, but thats only in leves. Its probably why it feels almost the same to you, and totally different to me.

    That aside even though the AA system is supposed to be an advancement, it still feels very rough and disconnected to me.
