Skill not Highlighted when doing Combo?

[Zaiken]

Does anyone have problem where when you do the Combo in the order and it don't get highlighted, making you execute the combo from beginning again?

Like as a Paladin, Fast Blade, Savage Blade don't get highlighted.

Fast Blade, Savage Blade, then Rage of Halone not get highlighted.


This happens so many times but mostly on Turn 4 when Tanking the Knight and Soldier and was wondering what is going on. Does it get resisted, or it is lag? One or two is ok, but it seam to happen constantly for some reason. Anyone have any ideas? Driving me nut!

do you have enough accuracy? you need 470+ acc for turn 4

edit: it's probably accuracy, after checking your profile you only have 445 acc on your pld.

I've noticed that tends to happen if one of the attacks misses, usually the first weapon skill in the attack. I can tell the attack has missed (even ignoring the on screen display), as the sound effect made is the same sound effect that happens when a normal (auto) attack misses as well. I've also noticed some off-GCD abilities can also interfere with a weapon skill combo - using a certain ability in between will cancel the effect.

Yes, this happens because you missed the attack.

How do I get more Accuracy? Accuracy food? I'm wearing almost full iLevel 90 Gears, all Dark Light Ring and Accessories.

buy valor headpiece or pants, buy a hero's belt, penta melt some gyphon rings or switch back to DL hands and eat accuracy food. Both valor pieces (body, hands) you have now doesn't provide any accuracy so you have limited choices.

you need 480+ on Turn 5 so... i'd start investing on accuracy items from now on.

There are a few ways you can go about getting close to the cap currently.

One such way is replacing your Valor Gauntlets for now with Heavy Darklight Gauntlets and upgrade your Darklight Belt to the Heros Belt of Fending. These two changes will give you a total upgrade of 20 Accuracy points, putting your base accuracy at 465. With HQ La Noscean Toast, you can squeeze out an additional 9 points of accuracy to put you at a sweet total of 474 total accuracy. Keep in mind that you can also just not spend myth on the belt and just switch Valor with the Heavy DL Gauntlets to put you at exactly 470. Or, you can put away your Allagan Ring and purchase Heros Ring of Fending and get the 16 accuracy upgrade there. If anything, you can wait out and see what the CT gear is looking like and maybe look into upgrading the Hoplite Coronet or Trousers. (Welp, Looks like neither of these pieces give Accuracy so these CT pieces can be promptly ignored for the purposes of this thread.)

However, if you have the myth for it I would most certainly recommend ditching the Hoplite Trousers and switching to Valor Cuisses. Though it is the most expensive choice, it will put you forward 24 Accuracy points in addition to not having to downgrade any gear or sacrifice stats to get there.

If its not accuracy then its server lag. While you may not see the "dotted highlight" indicating that you started a combo, you can still in-fact continue that combo and it will register. It happens to me quite a bit (I'm on PS3) and is especially noticeable in highly congested zones/fates, but it will still indicate that an action was taken when you get the gcd timer. Just continue with your combo.
