Monks, Legacy Type Controls and Auto Attack

[Atreides]

A great MNK will not use a controller.

Yeah I must really suck, I don't see whats so great about holding the right mouse button while moving anyone should be able to do it.
The only problem I see is that legacy with controller is kinda awkward when it comes to strafing, I have to constantly use lock-on, it works but it's a hassle because the camera position goes bonkers.

While that "great Monks don't use controllers" trolling attempt by the person above was indeed smug as all hell and not necessary, I unfortunately do not believe you can do what is being done on that video with the gamepad. I was trying some different ways to get around having to use lock-on while playing on my 360 controller and couldn't see any method for doing so.

Oh I did not say I can do that with a controller, as of now it's not possible to strafe without lock-on on legacy with a controller.
I was just trying to say it's a very simple thing to do with mouse and keyboard and does not require a "video guide" per se.
Hopefuly they fix the camera going in a really awkward position when using the lock-on funktion with L3 since they did mention that they do something about the camera on legacy controlls.
Maybe there's an easy solution with X-padder to make it work without limiting the keybinds too much... I'll give it a try tomorrow.

I played TSW for a long while this way. Use xpadder to make your right stick into R-Click + mouse movement for each direction. Works like a champ, catch being you'll no longer have a "free look" that doesn't make your character spin round. Like it matters ^^

Other potential catch, I don't know if you can disable the default actions for the stick, using a PS3 controller with motioninjoy you can "hide" that stick from the game so only motioninjoy and xpadder use it.

At any rate, it really is probably easier to just turn on "face target when using an action" in the options and always be using an action while your moving (you already do this to get around delay in position checks anyway, right?)
