PETITION to remove the Animation Lock!

[Absurdity]

What animation locks? Maybe it was different years ago (i don't remember anymore), but the only skill i remember from the top of my head that locks you in animation nowadays is spineshatter dive on dragoon. I can just run circles around monsters while i beat them up on physical ranged/melee/tank if i want. Even casters can just walk out of casting animation whenever they want.

There are a few more, not counting all the abilities with a cast time.

Drg jumps all put you into a very very short animation lock, except Stardiver which puts you into a slightly longer one. Ninja's Assassinate puts you into one, as does Ten-Chi-Jin (you can technically move but it immediately cancels the ability). Then you have all the limit breaks which put you into an animation lock after the cast is finished.


That's still not a lot, which is why I assume we're talking about something completely different and just calling it animation lock. Most abilities in this game do not lock you in place while their animation plays out.
