ARC Auto-attack = Ranged attack..

[Esk]

Seriously.. Did you have to.. I still love ARC as I didn't have to put up with this crap.
It kept the class interesting over the others.

I know its probably useless but Please let us keep control over when we shoot like we do now or give us the option to do it like that... I know people seem to love auto attack but it really is an old an outdated system..

Bah.. There goes my being stoked about the coming changes..
oww Skyrim...

It looks like archer's auto attack is going to be coming in the form of a toggle.

it's hilarious because your signature is such a good follow-up to your post XD

lol true but my point still stands
Guess i need to avoid the emote lol

Because the animation lock from light shot is so much fun.

It's clearly a toggle since it's listed as an ability. Notice no other classes have "Auto Attack" listed.

You should be happy.

Hope your right, but i got a feeling your not..
Just be a massive loss imo for it to go that way, I've never got how less control over actions is better in a lot of peoples eyes.

its not less control... personally i cant see the point why it should be important to press a button every 2-3 secs to perform a regular non important "auto attack".... where is the sense?

its only annoying... and to hear the *weep* weep* tone every fuckin' 3 secs ;D

This really shouldn't be the answer to it... What if you wanna use a weaponskill, you gotta go back into active mode and hope you don't suddenly go into auto-attack mode again.

EVERY class has to switch to non active mode or just deselect the mob thats it, if you dont want to auto attack on it.



well, if ony people like you would be here, who are complaining about new changes then this game would never go into the right direction. People didnt liked the gameplay system... thats what the people complained about. and its SENSELESS to make archer the only class NOT having an auto attack with his Class weapon.

i mean come on... you are hitting with your bare hands ? thats a joke.
we need changes for FFXIV otherwise it will die. we need drastic changes.
wait and see how the gameplay of archer will be after 1.20

in my opinion it sucks to play an archer right now, in comparison to others.. its not that fluent and comfortable. and i say *WEEP *WEEP *WEEEP* *WEEP [...] tinitus..
that *weep* weep* before auto attack just sucked and was stupid.

Simple solution when you don't want to attack: get out of active mode.

easier: [esc] (deselecting target)

Not for me, my sleep key is directly above my ESC key. Stupid keyboard layout xD

You got plenty of time during the animation to exit out of attack by either using ESC like Tonkra said or getting out of active mode. It's not that hard.
