Thread: The new 1.18 Battle System enhancements thread!

Yeah, I think I would have died if I fought a normal monster the first time. My fight basically went:

"Oh, new icons, and are they bigger now? Cool."
*walks up to monster*
*Full Thrust*
"...? I can't use it again for 1:00? ...Ok, Heavy Thrust it is then, I guess."
*Heavy Thrust*
"...I can't use that against for a minute either?? *glance back at Full Thrust, timer is at about :50* Umm, well I guess I have enough TP to Skewer it..."
*Skewer II*
"...So now what? I just used my TP and the timers on my normal moves to get more TP are still at :45. ...I guess I'm getting TP from getting hit?"
*Invigorate*
*Moonrise/Skewer/something*

For monsters way lower than me that pretty much made up the entire fight. But yeah, it felt super sluggish and weird that I couldn't use my basic moves. I would lower those down to 0:15 or something.

(I guess there's auto-attack now, but I don't think I ever saw my guy use it? It must be fairly slow because I had a lot of pauses there where I was trying to figure out what to do.)
