lol... Do you understand what I'm saying? Anybody can execute a combo 100% of the time. It is theoretically possible by design. Combos don't have a proc chance or something. If you hit from the designated positions, they work. Simple as that. There is also ample time between each WS to re-position.

The reason they don't work 100% of the time in practice is mainly due to lag causing you to end up hitting from one position whereas on screen it looked like another.

If you read my post, I did actually bring up buffing GLA, PGL, MRD and LNC damage as a possible way to balance this so that combos become a big bonus rather than something expected of you to keep up. However, I feel that would encourage reverting to the old stand in one spot and spam attacks playstyle for most fights.

Making it so DoW can string combos strictly based on the Weaponskills connecting, however so that they only receive the combo bonuses when executed from the right positions as well would not only maintain the current DPS balance between classes, but still encourage the dynamic playstyle combos are so obviously promoting.
