Be sure to shoot it constantly with your flame-thrower. It might be a spy.

Hope in a official translation soon

[Besbeset]

Using google to translate the text says in one of the lines: "the gauge action is deprecated".

I didn't know anything about that nor an official EN anouncement, maybe there was one and I missed it, but if that's true I'm happy.

There would be no need for an Action Gauge with an Auto-Attack function anyways.

Spells work better with cooldowns and cast times, they don't need a third mechanic to gum up their use. Half the time I am playing I have no clue whether I am even going to be able to cast some spells, or if they will just sputter out.

Bye bye stamina gauge, these changes to the battle system should prove interesting.

[Physic]

yeah they are killing stamina guage, looks like it will be a TP and recast based system. Which means TP is once again king. Also looks like they may kill all the various basic attacks, someone mentioned movement with steadfast, but ill let a real translation come. Over all, sounds like battle is going to have a lot less depth, closer to spamming cooldowns, probably reduce tp gain, or else people will be spamming weaponskills, only way out of that is to have animations act like stamina.

I suppose they could put a short cool down on the basic attacks and keep them, like 2 seconds or something, they mentioned using half tones to show when attacks are available.

They mentioned something with reactionary skills,

Odd, I thought they said something about keeping the stamina bar...

Haven't had an official translation yet, so don't believe anything you are hearing until we get official word.

I think it was in the letter the battle director posted or something like that.
