Final Fantasy XIV Auto-Attack Video

Why is this line even there:

- Attack speed will differ based on the weapon used by each class

If the delay was on each individual weapon he would have posted:

- Attack speed will differ based on the weapon.

Looks like each class is getting its own delay. NOT each weapon individually.



GLD will attack every 1.4 seconds
LNC will attack every 1.3 seconds
MRD will attack every 2 seconds

and so on...

(just hypothetical examples)



Clarification Devs?

You're just reading too far into it. That could just mean each weapon used by classes will have its own delay. Honestly it doesnt matter much either way, but delay on weapons would be better for customisation and it would make more sense, considering gladiator can use daggers and swords and that's the obvious way to distinguish.

Looks like they're getting rid of the 'pause' when switching from passive to active mode. They just haven't implemented an animation for the new rules behind it, as the character was gliding with both feet on the ground during the sequence.

And they prob never will

In spite of the negative comments on the subject, I'd like to say that, as a mage who prefers to use a shield while solo, the auto-attack for close range is welcomed. I keep my stats relatively equal, so Shield Bash his for decent supplemental damage - and it's not gonna charge its own TP.

I'm excited for Auto-Attack I can now be truly lazy but look like I'm doing something... Everyone will be none the wiser....

[Zenaku]

Really? you guys bi*** and bi*** about auto attack and wanting it so bad now that you have it you complaining that it may be like FFXI?

Is having ffxi auto attack but done better a bad idea? no not at all have you saw how bad ass the WS are looking? beside pug -.- they look the same which am really sad about.

anyways i can care less how AA is as long as Monk get some good WS and the delay is not that bad.

I think he meant "carpal" tunnel system, and not "copper"

The fight in the vid looks boring.
Battle stance looks so neutral, as if they disengage from the fight after each attack.

The fights used to look boring and nothing much changed...
