    I don't personally agree. I used to do Savage in Heavensward with standard and I could do all the mechanics, but I was just barely achieving them all and it was very last moment stuff, very tense. It's comparatively braindead with legacy and not really tense at all.

    Well it's good you found a workaround. Like I said, some people prefer it or find a way to make it work.
    I've used the standard control scheme in MMOs for 20+ years, including various high end content, and have never had a single issue. It's absurd to write off the entire control scheme as inferior just because you personally struggled with it.

    It wasn't so much that I struggled with it... it is just that when you see how much better legacy is, how much time it saves and how you can do it one-handed, it's a degree of advantage that is hard to ignore.

    When I see other players struggling to do a mechanic in time, sure, I'll write it off and say they would probably benefit from this much better control method.

    The two are identical in performance for those who know what they're doing. You happen to have an easier time with legacy. I have the exact opposite experience and find legacy obnoxious to use, so my performance would suffer. It's just personal preference.
