I don't understand your usage of "stop" in this statement. Do you mean disallows? Or do you actually start casting and then it stops? If it's the latter, you're cancelling your spell by hitting it twice. If it's the former, then, as I said, get a feel for it. I'm a CNJ and I heal all the time and I have no problem with the fluidity of my casting.

I don't get your claims of logic when, as it stands, I speak from personal experience on something that is simply nice and fluid for me.
stop was the wrong word, i typed while paying attention to tv at that time. i meant to say prevent i suppose.

because by definition it isnt fluid because it doesnt match the designated charge bar and it prevents you form proceeding to succeed your list of spells to cast - which again is the opposite of FFXI.

because it works for you doesnt mean its a universally user friendly system. FFXI cast system was more userfriendly and even then it was considered by most other game companies and players to be clunky in comparison to other systems that used action bars and not solely on macros and menues.
now we have a hot bar but the animation lock system took a step back.
