Goodbye Battle Regimens

We've had a long run, but now we can say goodbye to your tactical prowess. For a few months we can just whack away at mobs without skill ^^ We had lots of fun, hope to see you improved and looking healthier when you return anew.

Hey! Where's Producer Letter XVII?

hey really need to streamline this system, it was extremely noticeable pre- auto attack with how slow it was and it feels like there is just too many button clicks. This would have worked better in FFXI were the pace is a bit slower and reverse for skill chains here, the much faster more fluent system for the quicker game. Im just not sure how they went from a simple WS to WS = effect to turn on BR > select attack > wait for partner to do the same > then click it off at the same time.

Hopefully they make it quicker and more noticable effects when it comes back, right now i just hate using it and wont miss it for a second.

for me ...good riddence.

why does the battle regimen thing on the main page say:

"A new thread has been started in the Updates section of the official forums regarding the new stealth ability for Disciples of the Land. The title of the thread is as follows:

"

someone forgot to edit their copy paste :x

Magic Bursting is already in the game WS >> WS >> Magic Burst. It just doesn't say "Magic Burst!" in the log but it is indeed there.

I hope they bring back visual onscreen effects like the Light and Dark skillchains in XI, Scission, Liquefaction, etc. Those looked cool and we all new when they successfully landed. Skillchains FTW!

You are not doing it right. BR deals massive damage when done right, it's all about communication.

I will definitely miss BR and gonna hate spamming AoE WS for the next 2 patches or more. /sigh

Exactly, 10000% this. Most of the people who complain about battle regimens never took the time to learn the system. My LS regularly utilizes them in all boss/NM fights and it makes things go by much quicker. I can deal without them for a bit but hopefully they'll come back better than ever.

oh i know how to do them, and they are useful, its just that they feel like its extra clicks for the sake of extra clicks. Its more about it not being a quick and simple process over "its not useful". The reason why people love SCs is because of how easy it is to use, not activating it, then select a skill, then click to use it. SC is simple WS, other guy WSs within a few second and thats it.

not sure why so many people would be against making BRs simple to use with less clicking (and how aweful it was when BR used to lock you half the time) Theres a reason they are changing it...
