Ditch TP in exchange for unique systems.

How would a mage build TP though, is it realistic to expect a mage to go in and melee during battle ?

I would very much like to see Musketeer with a rogue style combo system, something like the amount of bullets you shoot = 1 combo point.

or

No TP and just a stamina gauge which fills over time and not by action.

I think we're hoping for more of a Charge system. Where using magic to land enfeeblement or damage will generate some TP.

Yea I like the sound of that, It would make sense for spells to trigger some kind of TP gain.

Right.... Maybe some abilities could help them build up TP?

Personally I really despise the Light Shot thing archers have now, where you have to manually activate each shot of the bow. It should have been a straight auto-attack like the rest of the physical DPS classes.

And along with that, staves and wands could be set up to auto-attack from range with minor magical damage, as well as spells generating TP.

Yup I agree, but I remember recommending this back when AA was first brought in and was beat to death by insults.

I really don't see what difference it makes letting light shot auto attack or pressing it 4 times in a row.

The TP system is a unique system, unique to any other MMO

Wow's rage system says hello ..

Wow's stamina system says hello ..

FFXI's TP system says "GOOD MORNING STARSHINE"

Whats that got to do with it, I wasn't arguing who had it first ..

I was simply saying FF11 and FF14 aren't the only MMO's to have a system were you gain points per hit.

The person I quoted said it was unique .. unique when compared to other MMO's ..

Why do I have to explain myself .. just Fing read what he said.

Calm down captain! Relax, and let us breathe. I was joking with you. I mean, I posted "GOOD MORNING STARSHINE"

Alot of MMO's use a TP/energy system of sorts, I mean we can get really in depth and start going back to Ultima/EQ.. hell we can reference old school D&D in some instances. TP is an aspect used in alot of games, albeit with different names.

Unlike some of the younger posters we have, I have alot of respect for your posts chief. No need to get so snappy!
