I must say

I played 11 for years, and was excited for 14. And like many people I got it at launch, was disappointed, and moved on quickly. Today, I decided to reinstall and try it out after almost a year, and I was quite impressed. While it still needs a bit more improvement, it is far beyond the mess it was at launch, I believe all of my major complaints have been addressed on some level, and I'm actually having fun now.

Good to hear! Welcome back!
Yay positive feedback! lol

I have recently reinstalled and started playing again also, and I too am enjoying some of the changes. The combat changes I am enjoying quite a bit, although there is still a few things I think are slightly off. When I target an enemy, I have to innitiate an attack command on them to start auto attacking, but there is no "command" that is specific to doing it. It feels like this is missing.

And yes, welcome back!

Actually as long as you have an enemy targeted, your weapon is out and you're able to select actions off your action bar you should auto-attack. A little sword icon pops up near the enemy name/health thing when you're able to auto-attack and your character will do so automatically when within range.

Yeah, this. Think about it (if you played XI) that it's sorta like that, where you have to target an enemy, then click again to get the menu to pop up, then select "Attack" to start attacking, only in this case you don't have to deal with the extra click or menu navigation.

What I meant here was, from passive mode to attack, it "feels" to me like there is an extra action that is not needed.

Example being, you target an enemy, you confirm the target (<- this I think should put you in combat mode and start autoattack, by confirming the selection) then you hit your key for combat mode (<- the not needed action IMO). That's 3 keys to start auto attacking, assuming you didn't use an ability.

Not quite... There's two positions for the sword icon. One is above the enemy's name, and the other is on the same line as the enemy's name. When it's on the same line, then you've got auto-attack on. And I think the enemy name's color changes a bit when you have auto-attacking going. I'm not certain, though, I'm terrible with colors. Auto-attacking could still probably be made easier. Like just right clicking to initiate it.

Nice to read something like this in a while. WB o/
