Back Paddling is horrible.

[Klefth]

And people still keep replying like they never saw backpedaling in 1.0. You DO backpedal IN BATTLE, it's already been said, and what the OP means is not for it to be taken out of the game, but for it not to be the default movement scheme. As in, not out of battle. Just when locked onto something. You know, like it's been ever since XI. Also,

Your wow argument is old and the only reason you don't like it is because you want to use a controller just admit it.

You make it sound as if playing with a controller was a bad thing? What's with that?
