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

[DeadRiser]

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.

Yea this has happened to me too, /donotlike

Yeah it happens A LOT with attack spells for me. If I'm targetting the tank and decide to nuke, I press the skill and nothing happens and acts like it's trying to go off on my targetted person. It won't even let me go through the targets after I select the spell.

do you guys have subtargeting turned off?

Right, because the Chimera battle looks so much more challenging since it rewards static position for all minus the tank.
So lets recap...

Before spellcast movement - Battles such as Ifrit that forces you to move as eruptions can happen anywhere on the map.
After spellcast movement - Battles such as Chimera whose equivalent of eruptions/plume are static on the map.

If you consider content based staying in one space to cast spells, you are delusional.

I like how you compare a before and after with two different subjects. Ifrit is still just as challenging as it was before. If chimera dungeon was out before this casting change, people would STILL be in that same spot with or without this change.

You are delusional if you think otherwise.

I should be surprise at who is trying so hard to rip my posts apart, but sadly not, as you are that predictable. You are definitely white knighting this change really hard, and for what bewildering reasons? As you have not brought one good point about what this change brings and the impact on future content.

Same subject, don't know how you draw the conclusion any differently, unless you are reallllly reaching for one.

I doubt it is just coincidence, that Ifrit was released when you could move freely and eruptions could happen anywhere, yet when Chimera is released, coinciding with the 'movement will interrupt spellcast' gives you 0 reason to ever move.

You can't really say for sure that the lack of changing positions in the chimera fight is due to the spellcasting change. If it is though, I really hope they realize that they can still have fights like ifrit even with this change.

Agreed.

Lol, decent Paladins will never accept this change.
