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

[yukikaze_yanagi]

That's what they said when we wanted an alternative method of merging servers.

And it turned WONDER !
Seriusly, a complain isn't always right. We'll end with this system in 2.0 in every case, better getting used to it now instead in 7 moths no ?

Agreed.

No.
People maybe need 7 days to get used to it, not 7 months.

It all comes down to a matter of taste obviously.
some people like it now, most mages don't.
i mean... noone was asking for that!
there wasn't a single thread like "Request: Interrupt spellcasting while moving"
- because it doesn't improve the game. it slows down party play. especially in dungeons.

but out of the blue Yoshi-P wrote this thread title in one of the previous patch notes.
just because it better fits his idea of playing mage.

whatever. we'll see if more people think like me.
if not - *shrug*

Good, so in a few more days you'll get used to it and stop trying to shove your opinion down everyone else's throats? (All right!) I'll mark my calendar.

[Shiggysonson]

Agreed.

You talk like you know more than Yoshida on what this change will bring to the game. So many changes so far have been about the bigger picture; changes that don't seem to make sense now, but they do later. Just because you don't like ONE THING that this change brought to the game doesn't mean it's not improving it in other ways. Stop comparing it to the way it was before. Just get used to it and try to be the best mage with the new system.

why would it not fit his idea of mage? he stated in multiple interviews he plays as the smallest damage dealer in every mmo he plays. his idea of mage is stand there and throw me a heal and do nothing else while i have fun damaging the mob.

How are people having such a big problem with this? On white mage, I've never had my tank run out of health because I was running and couldn't cast or he was running out of my casting range. It's like 5 days after patch, you haven't gotten totally used to it yet and if you play all the time, well you suck >.>

I love this change. It's not as bad as everyone is making it out to be and save it for 2.0 because of lag is dumb excuse. The lag isn't that bad. That's why they added the movement thing by your tp bar. If the cast still goes off, that means you stood there for that long for he spell to go off. You've been having THAT since the game released.

Agreed. We need more white mages like this.

Two peas in a pod we are DeadRiser - well, an Eorzea pea pod that is! (Okay... enough RPing from me o.O)

I actuallly like the new system that much more. Ifrit is fun to run to another person's area and stop to heal them in case they die.. all the while eruptions are going off, etc. Lol it actually makes mages more exciting to me. People that find this a hassle don't work around the "lag" that happens.

Give it a couple more days and people won't be on this anymore. Currently the only problem with spellcasting is sometimes the spells won't start casting at all, which isn't even related to movement. I think it's a glitch in the system.
