Say No to auto-attack!

[Peregrine]

Seems like a troll thread to me, Auto attack isn't going to break the system. I think some people just don't realize just how bad the current battle system is for a modern MMO. Here is a hint, its going to take 3-4 patches to just bring this terrible combat system up to par from horrible to AVERAGE at best because the engine is still so horrible with its clunkiness.

This is sadly the reality. To be a passable Final Fantasy battle engine, it has to look almost nothing like we see now. That's teh difficulty ahead, and how far we have to go still.

For the entire game, really, just as in the battle engine...we're like...30% of the way to acceptable. It's that bad.

We can't be thinking we're almost there. There are MILES to go before this game even breaks into 7/10 review scores.

Hotkeys would have worked if this was a streetfighter game or an action MMO.
This is a strategic MMO.

So you don't mash 111111111111.
I still mash
113131141678911
133131168911
11116789

Same repetitive patterns. You can tell what abilities are on what number just by analyzing that pattern above.
