    Return to the start after death change

    so to click ok you have to hold down the click until it fully fills up? this has to be one of the most pointless time wasting things they ever added, even more so in nub groups were you wipe a lot. I just think there should be an option to change it back to just click

    It was put there to stop people from accidentally releasing because of pressing Enter/Clicking while typing, button mashing or just plain misclicking. It's rather common. As a healer, THANK GOD it's there now. Swiftcast thanks it too.

    Also it's like, what, 2 seconds?

    I kind of get fed up with time-wasting 'features' for those that can't concentrate for 2 seconds on what button they're pressing .. the endless "are you sure you meant to do that?" prompts are another symptom of this.

    There have been countless times where I've gotten raised, but got sent to the front because I hit the left button too soon, effectively wasting my healer's swiftcast and kicking me out of the rest of the fight, putting me at a disadvantage.

    Are you saying I wasn't paying attention for a raise? I clearly waited for it to happen, just twitched to click literally just a few frames early.

    Absolutely thank god! So many accidently click it during boss bouts, and seemingly right after I use swiftcast to boot. Drives me absolutely bonkers.

    it's still an inconvenience even if its by 2 seconds, adding a box in the systems settings or character settings to make it the default isn't really asking for much considering I myself have never accidentally clicked return, I don't need this pointless 2 second wait on a wipe

    Its more of an inconvenience because we are all still used to just clicking it. I was annoyed at first myself, then remembered that literally two days prior to patch I went and sent myself to start thinking I was getting revived during a raid. Made me appreciate it after that.

    This is exactly what happened to me. I thought I was getting revived and nope! Locked myself out. I felt like a fool. I was a little too quick on pressing OK. I did this only once, but I welcome this feature. It made me more cautious, so lesson learned, but I think this is needed.

    If they can, it'd be nice to make it so it's only the new way while your party is still in combat though. No point for that wait once the wipe is complete.
