    Sprint Idea

    Not sure if this has been said before but i feel sprint should be used as a cool down instead of taking TP. Mage jobs having nothing to lose using sprint in fights as a DPS it will ruin you if invig is down.

    Well, its true there isnt a single fight which requires sprint... but then again all those have been made with the idea in mind that melees can't sprint mid fight or they are screwed...

    Allowing sprint as an OGCD would then free the SE team to make up mechanics that require sprinting... but if it ever were to happen, I would like some reworking on the battle sprinting animations... :|

    I hate sprint draining TP, but what I think is the rationale is that casters have less mobile DPS, so they need faster repositioning to start turreting again.

    The only time I can see this seriously turning into an advantage would be PvP but even that is a bit iffy. I have not encountered any situation in game where I felt sprint was a make or break for a mechanic; seems okay for now.

    if it drains TP for disciple of war then it should drain MP for disciple of magic at the very least imo (though BLMs would still have it good).

    it cripples melee who need it the most. and gives no hindrance to casters what so ever who don't even need it as badly since they're ranged in the first place.

    What people need to understand is, Sprinting is rarely useful, if at all. I can't think of a single instance in which I sprint, I really can't. It's more novelty than anything. It's NOT a hindrance to ANY class because it isn't a NECESSITY.

    I can't think of a single instance where I don't use sprint as BLM. I'm surprised more casters don't use it all the time. It's far from make or break, but I don't think any job has 2 cross class skills better than it.
