FFXIV moved away from auto-attack while WOW went without... how odd.

I agree. Unless you have crosshairs popping up like Tera, auto-attack should be standard. There is no reason to have to keep hitting the same attack over and over. This is doing the same thing as auto-attack, but instead of not hitting a key, you have to manually press it. When you manually press it, you can't communicate effectively.

I play an Archer and:

Light Shot== Auto attack, except i have to click it each time, and animate each time which stops my movement :*(.

If they removed light shot, introduced auto attack and made TP gain more smooth, rather than a chunk every 4 seconds, the game would run a lot smoother IMO and combat would be a lot more fun.
