I assumed they were trying to REDUCE the number of actions we had to take to do things.


Guess not...

Can we PLEASE just get an action at level 1 called "Auto attack on/off"

This whole "not sure if my character is attacking or not" thing is BS
I totally agree. Not only this problem for me but now when im engaged i have a problem as where i cant press up/down to switch action bars sometimes i have to unlock on target put weapon away and reengage to to get my action bar to switch w/o manually clicking the arrow . I constantly find myself using a ability to enter auto attack i should just be able to walk up to it mouse click it and automatically start attacking like in ff11. How come everything that was so easy in 11 has to be some damn hard, underutilized and absurd in ff14. THIS IS A PC GAME . CONTROLLERS ARE FOR CONSOLES AND NOT A GOOD TOOL FOR PC MMOS . HTF do u controller players swtich between skills? scroll thru them and waste time?
