Sprint Ability

[Myranda]

While I agree the key binding should be closer to WASD (or custom mappable to your preference), it is worth noting that even if it does take up a slot, there's still 1 more slot per action bar row than we had in 1.0, so it's not like anything is getting worse because of it.

Side note: though I won't be a PS3 player myself, I don't think that L3/R3 would be optimal... it's a little weird to have to hold down the sticks while you're trying to use them for movement/camera at the same time.

side note: L3 is used all the time for sprinting in FPS games while you control the camera with the Right analog stick.

Ah, so pressing it not only toggles sprint, it makes you run forward without tilting the left stick? Carry on then, this is just my ignorance as not much of a console player.

why do you want sprint as combat ability? is it that hard just to click it?

It's a combat ability right now. It sounds like you're confused about what I posted.

In an FPS, L3 makes you run faster by toggle but you still have to use the left stick to control your movement. So no.

So what is the issue again?

If you're gonna troll, at least manage to get more than 2 pages in before screwing up. C'mon Neptune. You've gotten rusty.

Sprint is as much a combat action as Teleport, Return, or Jump. Meaning, it's not. You can put pretty much anything on the action bars in ARR.

Considering it immediately reduces your TP to 0, it would never feasibly be used in combat anyway. If anything, it's a non-combat only ability that can easily be tucked away in that unused spot on your 3rd bar that you'd switch to when in town or w/e.

Your argument didn't fall apart. It was never together to begin with. Such a poor effort.

You press and tilt to any direction you want to move with the left analog stick. The right analog stick controls the camera.
