ARC Auto-attack = Ranged attack..

[Spider-Dan]

What all this about an animation lock? I have no issues with an animation lock with anything on arc

"Animation lock" refers to your character being frozen in place while you perform an action (e.g. whenever you fire an arrow). While melee DD can use auto-attack to engage the enemy and be able to move instantly, ARC is frozen in place every time they attack.

I understand the op. position as i love archer class, and before it was nerfed it was the best class out there, about the range AA i dont think its all that bad, because as we already know the combo system will add complexity and having to be shooting a normal shot every time we can is not the best option, maybe with this new system we wont even remember to shoot normally.

From what i read i know we still have something like multishot but maybe will have more uses than a lightshot, so i'll wait and see.....
