Alpha First Look: Video 7 – Levequests and Party Combat

[Klefth]

And guess what? Even FFXI, too.

It didn't look like mindless ws spam every 3 seconds, though. Heck, the ARC doing that leve near the beginning barely landed a couple of autoattacks between all of that ws spam.

I don't know about you, but when I played XI I got a lot more excited about the weapon skills I used than the auto attacks. By that logic, combat should be a lot more exciting if the player is able to execute weapon skills more rapidly. It isn't like we'll be able to spam weapon skills infinitely. We only get 1000 TP after all, and it looks like it doesn't regen all that quickly in combat.

Surprised no one's mentioned it, but hey! Did you notice the ARC has a ranged auto-attack?

You're right, because PC in FFXI are too busy blinking in and out of existence switching between gear sets. Same amount of spam, different actions involved.
