[dev1206] Class Reforms & Action Lists

[Mihana]

this is not a valid excuse for ARC to not have AA because all can do the same mistake ARC does or worst than that

Uh, I didn't say they shouldn't have auto-attack, just not as a ranged version. Most people have common sense to turn away or run away from the enemy soon as it's slept and thus prevent auto-attack. With an Archer soon as you turn around you're going to shoot the enemy whether you want to or not. And again as I said it sticks you in a state of animation-lock (The prime reason nobody wants Archer for even Ifrit besides damage.) since you gotta stop and nock an arrow each time. Now if they let you shoot while moving then it solves that issue yet there's still the effect that you're using up your arrow supply. Of classes only Archer has to spend gil to deal damage.

And some types of arrows alone can get extremely expensive. Cobalt Arrows were running for about 130G per arrow in the market wards on Besaid in Ul'dah, 126K or so for a single stack last I checked. To those who don't play Archer as their main class it may not seem like a big deal, but to those who do, it is.

.....turn around?

Again, unless they change it, not possible. Currently firing an arrow forces you to turn around. But there's still like I said, the issue of the animation lock.
