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?

[Zanfire]

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

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

Good thing too. Their Battle regimen system isn't fun to execute at all and it's a lot less dynamic than the skillchain counterpart in FFXI. Just improve on the skillchain and it will be fine, as in the same idea as skillchains + magic bursts butthey can add in their idea of debuffs on the target.

Just remove that stupid queue system the regimen is.

If BR is retired and SC + MB takes it's place, I'd welcome the transition.

On the other hand, I found BR to be interesting and carry great potential with some tweaks.

Oh Battle Regimen... How little we knew ye.

the only thing the BR has for itself is the debuff you create on the target when you get it right. Take that idea and put it over skillchains. Mainly what is making the BR so awful is the queue system where you input your ability to use in regimen and have to wait there unable to do anything until it's executed.

You just can't have this type of system with a real time battle cause you know... the battle keeps going while you wait on people. If you want a dynamic battle system and have fights that flow well, you got to have them executed like the SC were where everyone have to time their abilities for it to work.
