yah it was kinda of stupid, you would expect them not to touch it since they just changed it from that boring animation not long ago. They did add the jump animation into another WS, but i think its one of those "if you miss" ones. Pretty stupid imo.

but i have to say the combo system is interesting and im glad stuff like casting cure is not just a red or purple glow to the forehead anymore.

As for party seeking...why is it still retarded?
