Moving will be made to interrupt spellcasting at a point in time...

[Volsung]

I dont support this change. /sad.

Twitch? What is this?

At least we won't stop to cast spells while trying to run away from Ifrit's aoe skills.

For those worried about not being able to hit all your party members with curaga and buffs because they are always moving out of your range.

[dex1206] Magic spells have been unified to strike either a single target or, in the case of AoE, a circular area. Attack range has also been increased, and area of effect broadened.

So this is really a non issue.

Just to reiterate why a change in how we cancel spells is needed, having to select the spell you are casting again in order to cancel it is a bad game design. This is made even more obvious for those of us that use macros, and is further compounded by the animation lock that happens at the start and end of each spell.

Adding spell cancelation from character movement is not the only way to solve these issues, but since no other options that we know of are coming in the immediate future this will definitely work for me.

I don't see what anyone has to gain from stationary spell casting. It's stupid. Isn't it more fun to move and cast?

Is it more fun to play Resident Evil when you can't strafe?

Casting requires concentration...and if you move you interrupt your own spell. If they do this they need to establish visible spell range zone and also spells need to be powerful since they'll be hard to cast.

I doubt they'll do that, but I like your suggestion. There should be a bonus to spell damage if you stand still, simple as that. On the other hand, doesn't it require greater concentration to cast while moving? If you have high enough intelligence you should be able to use it to cast while moving.

If you ask me I say it's about damn time. Can't go anywhere without those damn whippersnappers running, frolicking, and casting in my yard.

I hear ya. Back in my day, we had to actually stop running from something to cure ourselves before it could claw our face off. Kids these days just want an easy mode. Gettoffmy lawn.
