Thread: The new 1.18 Battle System enhancements thread!

Some people just need the feel of pressing something to the sake of pressing stuff.

I never have problems finishing an enemy, with the AA. by the time I heavy and full thrust, I have enough TP to feint twice if lucky, which charges leads into a full buff WS spam. If the enemy is still living, it's still faster then the old way.

On glad and pug...omg I like never run out of stuff to do. Between shield skills, and Palanx, and all the counters you proc, you're sitting on TP manafesto. I can get 4 palanx and 2 WS out back to back with going inputs faster then animations will allow.

I don't know what people are talking about. It's probably all the nay-AA people. 60 seconds is already generous for zero point skills. The TP spam is already at WoW level which I usually don't like, because it's shallow button combo spams.

Heck if you have time to mull over it, you're probably curing or 2nd wind yourself in solo situations.

If this was a party with actual BR revamping. It would be incredible fast pace.

I like the fact I don't have to be going 112342. since half of it is now AA or macros. and I can even get out a shield bash finally on to interrupt or stunning.

It's been so long since those skills are actually on my bar....

I dont see waiting around for what use to be a usefull ability for 1min to be generous. Its not just the combat and nerfs that the Devs went overboard with but thats for another sub-forum. Also like to note enemies arnt as slow as players, its seems like we've been hit by a slow spell all the time.

NO clue what you're talking about. I barely have any time to react as it is. I can do 4 phanax and 2 WS, which I couldn't pre-1.18. And if my shield don't block, I that's when I charge up TP using light stab and heavy. Add in a cure and shield skils... I'm doing more then I was doing 1.18 and better.

Before I couldn't phalanx or feint right, now I'm like doing it back to back at times since the 5 second timer is so tight.

I think your spammy attack skills are making you slow honestly. Do you even feint or any of the counter skills? They are supremely powerful now on solo.

If I didn't know better, I wold bet you're spamming all your skills and then complain you're running out of them.

I don't even do heavies much anymore, because I'm expecting the enemy to attack so I can proc my counter phalanx.
