I am confused..Auto attack?

[Oscillate_Wildly]

I don't think the stamina system was entirely flawed. I think what did the communication in was the constant spamming of 1 key in order to continuously make up the TP.
If they'd just made it so your basic attack spammed itself, I think stamina could have been adjusted to make combat a lot more comfortable. It also served as a visual to show you were at least doing something. Now with no auto-attack button I have to blindly trust that something is happening even if the server is bogged down.

When's the last time you played XI?

I highly doubt you are attacking this fast:

I bet even the whm here is attacking faster than the fastest DD in XIV.

I find it funny that just about every video showing combat from FFXI is sped up. lol

I wouldn't mind the auto-attack if it was faster. I guess I am complaining more about the pace of the game now.

lmao awful example

I was more pointing to the nin.

Why would I compare a lvl 1 anything in XIV to anything? Just about the only people left playing have jobs at cap or close to it. And a patch which did little but take the interactivity out of battle, nerf mages and kill SP from leves isn't going to bring in a whole lot more lvl 1 gladiators.

To me the current speed of AA is about the same as when it was with the stamina system. They do have plans of increasing the battle speed in future patches though.

to me you are completely off base and the current change drastically slowed things down.

[Kryptic]

Yeah I figured they would just like they did in FFXI. Once they implement haste gear and what not. But haste gear with the stamina bar probably would of been awesome too. Guess we'll see how it goes down the road can't say much yet.

Well it's a good thing we're both entitled to our opinions.

It is cause youtube has a length limit and most of the battles people bother to post are lengthy NM battles. Sorry mate, but if you haven't played XI in more than 2 years, you really shouldn't make comparasons to it. Nin/dnc now hit so fast you can barely see them. Hell even my clunky bst hits fast.
